The electoral victory that Joe Biden (77) can no longer take. That’s what the results, the media and Georgia’s Interior Minister Brad Raffensperger say (65).
He resists Donald Trump’s accusations of electoral fraud (74). «Were there invalid votes? Certainly. And my office will examine them all. Does the number of votes or the difference increase so significantly that Donald Trump gets the votes of the Georgia electorate? That’s unlikely, ”Raffensperger said on Nov. 9. The Republican was narrowly elected in a runoff in 2018 and is responsible for ensuring the elections run smoothly in highly competitive Georgia.
Raffensperger hated his friends at the party for their clear stance. Among other things, the two Senate candidates, who will face a runoff on January 5, demanded his resignation.
Raffensperger fights back on Facebook and continues to meddle with his party. He even describes one of the top Republicans in his state as a “liar.”
Raffensperger is apparently putting a lot of pressure on his friends at the party. In an interview with the Washington Post, Raffensperger accuses Trump’s confidante, Lindsey Graham (65), of having asked him directly about the possibility of annihilating valid votes.
Raffensperger leaves his party
In Georgia, Trump and Joe Biden are separated by just 14,000 votes. Due to the adjusted result, it is counted by hand. So far, however, there have only been a handful of shifting votes per district, in both political directions.
In recent days, Trump had claimed in numerous tweets, among other things, that election officials in Georgia were unable to properly verify signatures on postal voting envelopes due to a law.
While numerous prominent Republicans support Trump on his baseless claims, Raffensperger objects. Among other things, he writes on Facebook that signatures are even verified twice before a vote by mail is counted.
On Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani (76) claim that the local electoral system is linked to Venezuela and China, Raffensberger emphatically mocks that it is US-owned: “America. ‘Merica. Not Venezuela. #America.”
Did Trump’s confidant want to rig the Georgia election?
Meanwhile, Trump fans are calling to protest the election results in Atlanta, Georgia, next weekend. Yet a graphic advertising a “March for Trump” is already causing a lot of mockery online.
This is not only because the state name was misspelled instead of “Georgia” with “Georiga”, but also because the state appears in blue on the demo call. That means Biden’s Democrats rather than Trump’s Republicans.
