Kelly Dixon ordered her staff to used ballpoint pen for early voting from 10/23 to 11/2. Then they said they NEED to use markers on Election Day on paper that wasn't ink proof. This caused post voting adjudication. Hmmm, which party is more likely to vote on election day...?
Nothing stopping you from bringing your own pen or Sharpie is there? Again, Sharpies were A-OK to use in Maricopa County, they publicly released a video saying exactly that on 10/26/20.
Not to detract, but I thought the term "Sharpiegate" had to do with Trump's ill-advised markup of a hurricane map when he wanted to indicate where he thought a hurricane would go rather than where the weather experts thought it would go. What does that have to do with elections anywhere (let alone Georgia specifically) apart from an example of why some general election voters may have decided not to vote for Trump?
Yes, the absence of evidence is my "rock solid proof" that there is an absence of evidence.
Do you think about stuff before you type it out, or......?
Oh, I thought it out. Did you?
You claim to be 100% certain that there was no vote fraud. In order to say that, you have to prove it. Where's your rock solid proof? Did you think about that before you typed it out? Never mind, that you willfully ignore or twist yourself into a pretzel trying to defend mounting evidence of vote fraud.
Those who are making excuses for this also forget that the ballots the sharpies were used on were also thinner than the ballots used in early voting. The photos displayed of these ballots showed how the ink bled through and thus the machines couldn't properly read them.

Nope, you have it wrong. The 'sharpiegate' was real in Arizona. Ballot instructions in Arizona instructed folks to NOT use a sharpie to indicate their choice on the ballot. Then suddenly, Maricopa county said, use sharpies. Then when called out, it was a 'conspiracy theory' because the democrats said so. All the sworn statements and videos were called 'unfounded' and that was the proof that they were unfounded.

Who said that the machines couldn't properly read them?
And if so, did that person say how many ballots were actually affected by bleed through?

Watch the Maricopa County video from late Oct. You're wrong.

Not much of a "secret" attempt to "rig" the election.
"MARKING YOUR BALLOT: Did you know you can use a black or blue ballpoint pen and even sharpie to mark your ballot? Even if there is bleed through it won’t impact counting because our upgraded ballots have off-centered columns and our new tabulators only read the ovals..."
