The key battleground state of Georgia’s election board voted Friday to force ballots to be hand-counted three times before a result is declared.
As one of multiple motions on changing how elections are run, less than 50 days out from the November 5 election, the new rule was passed 3-2 by the conservative-leaning panel.
The changes come after Donald Trump heavily criticized the way the state handled the 2020 election results, repeatedly and falsely claiming he won the state.
President Joe Biden narrowly won in Georgia, with 49.5 percent of the vote against Trump’s 49.2 percent.
…
Critics have claimed the board, which has swung more to the right, is trying to rewrite the rules to favor former president and Republican candidate Donald Trump.
In a letter Thursday, the office of Georgia’s Attorney General issued a warning that the board was pushing rules that “very likely exceed the board’s statutory authority”, while voting rights groups had also raised concerns.

I love that they are already claiming fraud before the election has even started. Ummm, yeah, it’s you that are committing the fraud.
Do you know who is responsible for all this fraud that you allege?
GOP on November 6th: Why is the count taking so long!? There must be fraud.
Since the small counties are easier to count, they will be done first and when the “dump” from the cities come in, it’s fraud!
(Or if they find the fraudulent ballots that these GOP operatives slip in)
I’m pretty sure you’re right and this is exactly the intention
Hope these fuckers enjoy losing three times instead of once.
Bush Gore 2.0
Back when Florida threw out all those votes because Black people didn’t trust the system down there so they ticked, and wrote in “Al Gore”… Officials called this “over voting” even though the same candidate was ticked and written, they threw those votes in the garbage and Bush won.
So they filled the box for Gore, and then wrote his name down, and those got disqualified?
I didn’t follow this closely at the time (not American) but little tidbits like this pop up over the years and it’s fucking crazy.
It was about Hanging Chads. Basically it was vote by hole punch and sometimes the paper wasn’t punched all the way (Hanging Chad) so the vote wasn’t counted correctly by machines.
These can be counted by manual recounts which clearly show the intent.
Supreme Court decided not to count fully perforated punch holes which gave the election to Bush.

Ah I knew that one, the above sounded like something else.
Isn’t this the actual method of counting they used to fuck the recount in Florida in 2000?
