Wow…just wow.
Jesus that looks bad. So Georgia is almost certainly engaging in some kind of election fraud. Wow.
Nawww… Nothing to see here (says the MSM.)
Now if this was in a blue State, the apocalypse would be upon us from every talking head out there. Some here would then blame Democrats for bad messaging.
“Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find Georgia’s election-related data that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”

Bet there us a backup…
Does anybody think we have fair elections in this country? We don’t. We need paper ballots and while we’re at it, single payer healthcare. We put a man on the moon in 1969 but healthcare is number 237th compared to other industrialized countries and nobody uses hackable voting machines like we do. They use ballots and boxes. Jesus H. Christ does anybody think the Russians or Republicans or whoever are not hacking these votes??
unsettling … very much … for you know what resides on the continuum of
fair & honest elections … to mild shady manipulated elections … to heavy duty voter suppressing activities and destruction of evidence … to payoffs and bribes and total fabrications … to …???
Well some where on the far end is “sleep with the fishes” - and citizens with torches and pitchforks
The FBI is known to have made an exact data image of the server in March when it investigated the security hole. The email that disclosed the server wipe said the state attorney general’s office was “reaching out to the FBI to determine whether they still have the image.”
I’ll bet they do.
I imagine there’s some calculation behind this. No way they thought it was going to fly under the radar. They knew a storm was coming but less of a storm than what would be if the information wiped was recovered. There are some high end data recovery techniques that can, sometimes, recover government wiped data.
They did it because it was the lesser of two evils. They’re going to get heat but not as hot as what the data burn would get them. Too bad it’s a GOP’er state and no one is going to pursue it.
Furthermore Sean Hannity’s head would have literally exploded right on TV if Democrats did this. Hillary Clinton would have already been impeached with the current congress, and we let idiot molesters like Halperin spread conventional wisdom like Hillary didn’t go to Wisconsin enough. Democrats don’t bring knives to gunfights, they bring lube!
Looks like some of my posts while I’m on the eliptical
This. Is. Infuriating.
At what point will we say, ‘Enough’? Really, I think they’re just seeing how sheep-like we truly are. What’s next, really- what’s next and what will it take?
So we now know why Ossoff lost to Handel in GA 6th, when it appear to leading by several points in the polls…
“The Kennesaw election center answers to Georgia’s secretary of state, Brian Kemp, a Republican who is running for governor in 2018 and is the main defendant in the suit.”
“The plaintiffs contend that the results of both last November’s election and a special June 20 congressional runoff— won by Kemp’s predecessor, Karen Handel — cannot be trusted.”
Who needs Mother Russia when you can rig your own elections?
So let’s just get it out there. Given the current facts and until I see evidence to the contrary there is no reason not to believe that the Georgia Republican SoS ordered the servers wiped to conceal some crime or election irregularity.
Welcome to elections fraud, GOP-style.
Which raises the question of just how bad the information they were trying to cover up was that this is the less politicaly damaging option?
I doubt he ordered it, simply because good subordinates do what the boss wants without being asked. And the security hole (and their inability to fix it) was embarrassing all round.
I think sometimes looking for explicit conspiracies will fail because when people are working toward a common goal they typically don’t need a bunch of detailed orders from the top. (One of my old bosses always said, “Don’t come to me with problems, come to me with solutions.”)
