When this doesn’t work they’ll demand recounts in a half dozen other states.
It’ll all fail.

I assume the Dems are going to have monitors in every country. I wouldn’t put it past some of the Red Counties finding bushels of ballots “overlooked” in the first count.

How do you do a recount when the initial count isn’t completed yet?

So the rat-fucking plan in Georgia is apparently some rural-ass red county will have “problems” counting their 17 ballots by the deadline, so the GOP legislature will decide they can’t certify electors without a full audited count of the state.
Or, some county clerk “accidentally” adds 100,000 to Trump’s count right before the deadline, and they sadly can’t go back to see if there was an error since the deadline to certify can’t be delayed.
This leaves them to just pull the bullshit fraud card in PA or MI to try to steal the election.

Isn’t every close race in a presidential election of “national importance”? Who knew all we had to do was throw a big tantrum to get full hand recounts whenever we want?

A hand recount of five million vote by the 20th? That’s ridiculous! They couldn’t do a machine recount before then. They haven’t even finished the election day counting. They are just dicking around with it for their own reasons.

The hand recount is more likely to add votes to Biden than not. He won Georgia. It won’t change. It’s just a face saving exercise.

Why won’t anyone say “No” to the president or his minions? This is ridiculous. The Republican Party is a party of neo fascists and whining babies.

“Does it rise to the numbers or margin necessary to change the outcome to where President Trump is given Georgia’s electoral votes? That is unlikely,” he said.
Exactly! You actually need some sorts of… what’s the word? Proof? Facts? Reality?
My band teacher said getting to “one” is always the hardest thing.
Or, based on some of the recent phone calls he’s had within his own party, a life-saving exercise.

So why do a recount of everything, instead of the 5% sample that they usually do?

Well, if this takes long enough to “fail” in their eyes, it certainly cuts down the window for anyone else.
I’d like to know who is paying for it?
