No. It isn't illegal, so it's horseshit

The votes…never should have been counted.

FULTON COUNTY, Ga. — The Fulton County Elections Board has admitted to making a mistake during the 2020 presidential election.

The county says approximately 315,000 votes cast during early voting were certified without the required signatures on tabulator tapes from poll workers.

Those tapes are printed from ballot tabulator machines to verify that the number of voters is equal to the number of votes.

Why is that important?

The admission arose from a challenge filed by David Cross, an election integrity activist, who alleged that Fulton County violated Georgia election law in its handling of early voting. Under state statute, each ballot scanner is required to produce tabulation tapes at the close of voting, and poll workers must sign those tapes to certify the reported totals. These signed tapes are not merely an administrative safeguard. They are central to determining whether the vote count itself is legitimate.


The tapes certify that each machine began the day at zero, that no residual data from prior elections or test runs remained on the memory cards, and that the final totals were fixed the moment voting closed. Without signed tabulation tapes, there is no verifiable starting point and no verifiable endpoint. In legal terms, there is no verified election result. Yet in Fulton County, hundreds of thousands of early votes that were never lawfully certified were still included in the official totals.

Once Fulton County transmitted its early voting totals to the state, the responsibility shifted to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. He had a duty to ensure the results were properly certified and above board. Yet his office accepted Fulton County’s numbers on trust and included them in Georgia’s official results without verifying that the required procedures had been followed. This is especially important in light of the events that followed the 2020 election, particularly President Trump’s challenge to Raffensperger.


Were the votes invalid? There’s no evidence one way or the other. Was there an irregularity? Yes there was.

That irregularity means that all the screaming about how 2020 was the best and most secure election ever was miles off the mark and that the #cancellation of anyone who questioned it was also wrong.
