Georgia recertifies election results, rejecting fraud claims tied to viral video
Source said video has been investigated and debunked
By Audrey Conklin, Evie Fordham | Fox News
Georgia recertified its election results on Friday as Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's office debunked a recently surfaced video that appeared to show illegal ballot-counting without supervisors.
The Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections adjourned a meeting Friday in which members voted to recertify the results of the 2020 presidential race in favor of President-elect Joe Biden in a 3-2 voice vote.
Much of the meeting focused on a video that went viral Thursday, which political commentators claimed showed Fulton County election officials illegally stuffing ballots -- a form of election fraud in which more ballots are counted than were cast by eligible voters in a specific location.
A senior source in Raffensperger's office told Fox News that the video has been investigated and claims that it showed ballot fraud deemed unfounded, adding that Fulton County election officials had a designated observer at the location the entire time -- a practice that has been in place since June.
Raffensperger's office also debunked allegations that the ballots were stuffed in a pair of "suitcases" that one election official pulled out from beneath a table in the video, saying footage shows the ballots in the cases that they were supposed to be kept in.
Republican Georgia Rep. Jody Hice, however, shared the video on Twitter, calling the footage "explosive fraud."

Disappointed? Sure.
Surprised? Hell no.

That does not mean they were not fraudulent.

Georgia Republicans has just taken away the one way Republicans have to make their voices heard: the Vote.
Good luck on Jan 5.

But they showed a video in which nothing out of the ordinary was happening and claimed it was this giant scandal. Which is dishonest and why the Trump legal team is whiffing out.

Really? You throw out everyone because "the counting will stop until 8:30 am" --- keep four people who pull bags of votes from a uniquely identifiable table who continue counting for two hours---- and we only know this because of a previously unknown video ---- and this happens:

This spike is mathematically impossible without cheating, and it coincidently falls within the same timeline that the new ballots were captured.

If the ballots were in the 'suitcases' that they were supposed to be kept in, then there would be no reason to keep them hidden out of sight under the tables.

How and when did those ballots end up under the table?
Or is this just another under the table deal?
