I'm thinking what the hell happened? Did some poll worker reach into his jacket pocket today and say whoa, what the heck, I forgot to return this data thumb drive?
Really, from a procedural aspect, inexcusable that TWO thumb drives from Red county polling locations were misplaced and then somehow turned up. SLOPPY.
I agree Clara and this is why we need to do a thorough review from the top down and bottom up. Regardless of the outcome of this election, we owe it to every citizen that we ensure every single voter can feel confident in the system going forward. At first there was no evidence of any issues. Now issue after issue is arising. How many more are there?
Despite the two thumb drives that showed up today in red counties, that weren't nearly enough to change the results of this election, this is nearing an end.
And now Georgia has to prepare for the senate election to come in January.
Prayers they send at least one R, or the exec/leg branches will be all one party. Not good. Gum up the works.
Clara, any info on how the new votes affect the Senate races? They were much closer. I am with you 100% on gumming up the works. We should never have one party control, ever. Come on gridlock!
This election is now illegitimate, how many more votes that have not been counted.
Im sorry, but this sounds a little too good for Trump, I would put 'cheating and fraud' beyond him to try to steal this election!
Seriously, has anyone even considered that possibility? Trump and fraud go hand in hand, stealing an election would be right up his alley, heck, he stole from his own charity! LOL
I detest Trump, never voted for him and never will. That said the last people who should be squawking about accepting election results is the left. After 2016 the left really hasn't a thing to say about accepting results, acting adult or making up conspiracy theories to explain why their candidate lost.
Hillary conceded the day after the election. That says all you need to know.
The left was not screaming "fraud!" over PA, MI and WI. The left did not even particularly dispute Trump won those 3 states, and did not demand recounts. Because Hillary had already conceded the election, there was no point in them doing so.
They certainly thought the election was aided by Russia, but that's not the same as contesting the actual vote counts. The issue with Russia was more an issue of Russia doing shady things to persuade people to vote for Trump, rather than anybody casting large numbers of illegal votes.
Personally I was always ambivalent about the Russia thing. It was clear to me they were trying to influence the election, but whether that had much of an effect or not, I don't really know.
No, a majority of the people who happen to vote didn’t want another 4 years of Trump, which isn’t the same thing as what you stated.
The people who voted for candidates other than Trump are a subset of the people who voted, who are a subset of the people registered to vote, who are a subset of the people eligible to vote, who are a subset of the overall population. (and no, I’m not a Trump supporter, nor a Republican)
Whatever. trump lost.

I agree, and I don’t think trump supporters would have a problem with that. Main objective is to keep him in office, regardless of the methods.

What issues are real and which are just fake news and conspiracy theory? I have not heard any report of any credible issue. There were allegedly sharpie issues with Arizona dominion ballots, yet Maricopa County prefered the use of sharpies and did so for weeks before the allegations of sharpie-gate started. Within a week, the idea of sharpie-gate was dropped.
I'm waiting for some Dominion employees whistleblowers to squeal for the reward money! Money ALWAYS gets people to talk.
So does immunity from prosecution.
