Trump just picked up 800 votes in a Georgia county - link

[Alhena]

A replacement scanner used at the Floyd County Administration Building for early voting apparently did not tabulate just over 2,500 ballots, a hand recount revealed over the weekend.

Poll workers completed the hand recount of presidential election ballots in just under 16 hours of work ending Saturday.

Board of Elections Chairman Tom Rees said the hand count added over 2,500 more votes than were registered by computers on election night and the following morning.

According to Floyd County GOP Chairman Luke Martin, and tentatively confirmed by Rees, there were an additional 1,643 votes for Republican President Donald Trump, 865 for Democrat President-elect Joe Biden and 16 for Libertarian Jo Jorgensen.

1. I'll wait patiently for Fooliani to start whining about votes appearing out of thin air. eom

[Thekaspervote]

5. No doubt they are gonna make a BFD out of this and will be in the news cycle for a day or so

They could do recounts in every state and this will be single biggest error not changing the outcome, but gives legs to his nonsense...unfortunate

[Skraxx]

2. BS Headline, EVERYONE Picked Up Votes That Were Missed Because of Faulty Equipment

He netted an additional 800. So what?

[stopbush]

4. No. The headline says tRump got 800 more votes than Joe, ergo, picked up.

[Skraxx]

6. Nope, They ALL Picked Up More Votes, Trump Netted 800 More, Which is Meaningless

Headline says nothing about 800 more than Joe.

[Skraxx]

Not sure if you realize who I am, my handle has changed from the old days...Beetwasher....

[CatWoman]

16. The reality of it is the Con

only gained 778 votes, not even the 800 in title

According to Floyd County GOP Chairman Luke Martin, and tentatively confirmed by Rees, there were an additional 1,643 votes for Republican President Donald Trump, 865 for Democrat President-elect Joe Biden and 16 for Libertarian Jo Jorgensen.

According to the Secretary of State's website: 27,120 Floyd County residents cast a ballot for Trump, 10,972 for Biden and 496 for Jorgensen. The newly reported ballots aren't included in those totals.

11. 778

In case anyone is counting

I’ll just be over here

[Skraxx]

15. LOL!

[0rganism]

3. now can he do it 15 more times?

seems challenging, but i'd bet the GOP SOS is up to the task

[Budi]

7. Interesting. Did the vote change affect the Senate count also?

[LisaL]

8. They are not recounting senate races.

NT

[Skraxx]

10. Actually, Not Interesting, This is What Happens In Recounts ALL THE TIME

The scanners aren't perfect and miss counting some votes FOR EVERYONE. Not just Trump.

[Budi]

12. I was referring to the possibility of change in the Senate races

But I see it was only for the President race.
So it was interesting to me anyway.

[LisaL]

14. Both senate races are going into run offs.

Nobody got elected as of yet.

[Budi]

17. I know that. I was referring to a change in vote count that gave Trump more votes.

But I see that count was only for President & not Senate.

I was interested to know if any Senators were affected as well.

GOT IT *

[CottonBear]

25. This is an audit/hand count of presidential vote, NOT a machine recount of ballots.

MF 45 & GOP can still request a machine/scanner recount before the November 20 certification deadline.

BTW, I live in Georgia.

[Skraxx]

26. Yeah, I Know, The Manual Recount Picked Up Votes Missed By Machine Error, That's My Point

[hadEnuf]

13. Has the GOP had time and access to tamper with the ballots?

[Cattledog]

18. The votes were from a thumb drive of early voting that wasn't turned in.

[leftofthestorm]

22. Hope this doesn't become a pattern...

[mvd]

23. No reason to think it will be

This is actually on the high side of adjustment in a recount.

[onethatcares]

24. so the con picked up 1643 votes

and PE Joe Biden picked up 865 Ballots. what are the numbers they were added to? Serious Question.
