More on Trump's Keystone Lawyers: Requested a recount in Georgia one day after the state's e******n results were certified
Nov 22, 2020 22:38:01 #
Biden won Georgia by more than 12000 v**es.
The Trump campaign's lawyers said in a statement Saturday that they requested a recount in Georgia, after the e******n results showed President-elect Joe Biden won the state.
The petition was filed one day after Brad Raffensperger, Georgia's Republican secretary of state, said he had officially certified Biden as the winner of the state's p**********l e******n.
The Friday certification came after an audit that included a hand recount of more than 5 million paper b****ts. The final results showed Biden had received 49.5% of the v**e to President Donald Trump's 49.3%, with the president-elect winning by more than 12,000 v**es.
"Today, the Trump campaign filed a petition for recount in Georgia," the Trump campaign said in a statement. "We are focused on ensuring that every aspect of Georgia State Law and the U.S. Constitution are followed so that every legal v**e is counted."

The statement also stressed the importance of signature matching for mail-in b****ts, something that is completed upon receipt of the b****t, before it is counted.
Raffensperger, who received threats for his work overseeing the e******n, has expressed full confidence in the v**e count.
"The e******n appears to be very accurate," the secretary of state told Insider's Grace Panetta. "And as a Republican, I'm disappointed, but as a secretary of state, my job is to report accurate results."
In an op-ed published in The Washington Post on Saturday he again defended the accuracy of the count, saying, "Georgia's v****g system has never been more secure or trustworthy."
Georgia law allows for a candidate to request a recount if the results are within 0.5%. Biden beat Trump by 0.25%.

Biden lost GA. D******n appears to have won... but that may not last... or matter.
That may not last? Your accusations about D******n were thrown out in Pennsylvania. What makes you think they will be accepted here? Like Monty Python, you've had your arms cut off and your legs cut off so now you are but a torso, head, and mouth screaming to the world that you won.

They were not thrown out. An Obama appointed judge refused to hear the case.

==================
If the certification was wrongly given, while overwhelming evidences prove it wrong, then a recount is justified. That happened in many states due to fraudulent attempts to win the e******n for Biden.

As in every other state where Trump's lawyers have been laughed out of court, NO EVIDENCE has ever been presented.

Just exactly where is all this "overwhelming evidence"? It's the eleventh hour.... might be about time to produce it.
