According to the media narrative, the Georgia presidential election was as perfectly run as any election in history, and anyone who says otherwise is a liar.
"Georgia in Uproar Over Voting Meltdown," The New York Times proclaimed in a June 9, 2020, story, citing problems with Dominion Voting Systems and Raffensberger's management of the election.
Already concerned about the inherent lack of election integrity associated with mail-in ballots, the questionable security and chain of custody problems associated with rampant use of ballot drop-boxes, the large outside funding of vote processes by tech oligarchs, and all the other problems wrought by voting and counting ballots over a period of many weeks, if not months, the situation was deeply alarming.
A Serious Lawsuit Is Filed While conspiracy theories about election fraud went wild during this time - ranging from The New York Times' claim that there was no election fraud anywhere in the entire country to dramatic claims of a global conspiracy involving Venezuela and voting machines - the Trump campaign's official claims in its lawsuit filed on Dec. 4, 2020, were sober and serious.
The Georgia Supreme Court had previously ruled that challengers to an election don't need to show definitive fraud with particular votes, just that there were enough irregular ballots or violations of election procedures to place doubt in the result.
Judges never want to overturn the results of an election, but under Georgia law, the remedy for showing enough problems to cast doubt was that a new election be held.
Trump's lawsuit argued that it appeared votes had come from: 2,560 felons, 66,247 underage registrants, 2,423 people who were not on the state's voter rolls, 4,926 voters who had registered in another state after they registered in Georgia, making them ineligible, 395 people who cast votes in another state for the same election, 15,700 voters who had filed national change of address forms without re-registering, 40,279 people who had moved counties without re-registering, 1,043 people who claimed the physical impossibility of a P.O. Box as their address, 98 people who registered after the deadline, and, among others, 10,315 people who were deceased on election day.
The election code in Georgia requires that an election contest has to be served to defendants by the sheriff.
A letter from a Trump attorney said the offer was accepted and that "[w]e look forward to working and meeting with" staff to "Receive the heretofore withheld November 3, 2020 election data," specifically mentioning expert reports, official election records, voter registration records, applications for absentee ballots, investigative reports, and other relevant data and information.
Another call with Raffensberger was also leaked to the press to harm those who opposed Raffensberger's handling of the election, days before another pivotal election.
There are few NeverTrumpist arguments she avoids, and she shares the media's newfound talking point that election fraud is a "Big lie." It doesn't exactly build confidence that she knows what she's doing, is able to separate her emotions from her work, or is capable of understanding legitimate complaints with how she manages elections.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
