Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has called for the firing of election officials in Fulton County after evidence of double counted ballots has surfaced. The Federalist. 200 absentee ballots were found to have been counted twice. Raffensperger claimed that the double counting was just the latest incident that has undermined confidence in Georgia's elections. Other discrepancies have occurred in Georgia, with as many as 10,300 votes were cast illegally. Biden only won the state by 12,670 votes. Raffensperger is a controversial person himself when it comes to the election as he famously allowed the voting rules to be changed and refused to cooperate with President Trump's attempts at an investigation.
Fulton County’s continued failures have gone on long enough with no accountability. Rick Barron and Ralph Jones, Fulton’s registration chief, must be fired and removed from Fulton’s elections leadership immediately. Fulton’s voters and the people of Georgia deserve better.

My Comment:
It is strange to me that the mainstream media is covering this story but is not covering the Arizona audit even though that audit has alleged even more severe problems with the 2020 elections. That being said it's just conservative outlets covering this story so it's not an ideal situation.
The incident here isn't enough to overcome the outcome of the Georgia election. But if it is just the tip of the iceberg it wouldn't take much to overturn the results of the election. Biden's lead was absolutely tiny and if enough votes are invalidated than serious questions will be raised about the integrity of the 2020 election.
I also don't know if I believe Raffensperger right now. Though he is a Republican he has not shown himself to be loyal to either the GOP or the idea of election security. I am not sure if he is changing his tune, trying to save face, or has some kind of hidden objective. I don't trust him at all and as far as I am concerned he is a snake.
But I do think that the recent news has pretty obviously shown that the 2020 elections were not on the level. There were a lot of suspicious things that went down and it's very possible there was enough fraud and outright incompetence that Biden did not win the election at all. It's also possible that Biden still had enough votes to win without the invalid votes mattering too much. Without more audits we may never know for sure.
The Democrats do not seem to care though. They obviously benefited from the close election and not only won the Presidency, they also won control of the Senate. Indeed, they are trying to investigate the Arizona audit. Twitter even went so far to say even Raffensperger was lying about the election and that any allegations of election fraud or incompetence are "debunked".
The main problem though is without severe audits in all 50 states I don't think Americans will have any belief in our elections. It's very clear that election security is not a priority for the Democrats and no matter what they do. And if something isn't done than half the country will believe that there isn't a political solution anymore...
