It wasn't just Fulton. In several strong republican counties, the machines went down for two to three hours, and they forced paper ballots during that time--most likely to change the votes.

And I had to add this:

My brother is from Spalding County, which is where that pic came from with the dumpster full of 'ballots.' He knows the Sheriff there (who is a conservative to the bone) and said the guy told him that all that was in the dumpster was envelopes for ballots, not ballots themselves.

Wouldn't they be keeping the ballot with the envelope since the envelope is what would be postmarked?

Inner envelopes, I think. I can ask him again to confirm. We were discussing it last night at 1:30 am, so neither of us was really with it after having little sleep all week.

In finance operations we must scan into a database everything received, including and specifically the envelope, in order to verify if contributions were postmarked prior to the IRS tax deadline. If we did not have the envelope we would have no idea when it was postmarked.

Why aren’t these ballots required to be scanned into a database before anyone opens them? This is a basic standard in any company handling incoming documents. Fucking frustrating how simple some of this should be

Would take too much time and effort for a volunteer operation πŸ™„

Bullshit. You photo the front of the ballot envelope when you count what was received by the cutoff point.

We saw some ballots, maybe not there. But we saw some ballots with Trump's name in them. You can bet, if a Liberal Postman picked up a ballot with a Trump sign in the front yard they threw it away.

Dems are going to lose.

Only a moron would not take their ballot to a mailbox or ballot box.

A lot of people put their ballots in the mail, a Mail Box in a Conservative City is just as bad an idea. If I am a liberal Postman from a City that goes 70-30 Trump, why would I pass in any Ballots ? Maybe about half, if I was a Cheater at heart.A lot of older people only think, let me get it in the mail.

Vote by mail anywhere is the worst idea

So you have a problem with a union member of the USPS (who endorsed Biden) handling ballots with no chain of custody?

I have a problem with mail-in ballots PERIOD, its stupid. If you can't make it to vote you don't need to vote, and if that's the case, you can have an Absentee ballot. There should be ONE DAY to vote, and then we wouldn't have this BS.

What is with election machines always "going down"? Outside of periodic updates, my PC stays on literally all day, every day of the year. Might turn it off if I'm out of town for several days.

Because they needed to switch the votes. Possibly check to see what needed to be changed. That it was done in red counties could be just because they wanted the paper ballots so they could change the votes themselves.
