By Promoting Hand Counts, Georgia’s State Election Board Is Purposefully Setting System Up to Fail [1]

Date: 2024-09
“By mandating hand counts that can magnify discrepancies and potentially delay results, the Georgia State Election Board has taken another dangerous step to create doubt in our election process where there should be none. Counting thousands of ballots by hand will be an incredibly tedious, expensive, and possibly error-prone process. Any human errors can be exploited by election deniers to sow distrust and decrease confidence in our elections and in the hard-working election officials that run them. Many election workers have spoken recently about the threats they are facing from the conspiracy theorists who refuse to believe that our elections are fair, and these rules just add fuel to that fire.
