Neither of the other 2 eligible voters in my house did either.


SOMEBODY got your applications. It's just that you didn't.

Their information could be correct. But it’s so sloppily put together that no real conclusions can be drawn from it.


Pretty typical for Gateway Pundit. About half as reliable as a broken clock.

Wrong. here's their source-

They sent out over 7 million absentee ballot applications.

See the difference?


I knew what the "catch" was before I even read the article. I received multiple applications. Some branded D some branded R.

Correction from this fake news article

quote:

Update – originally we reported only 5.4 million voters in Georgia were registered based on a report. However, per a reader, we determined that the Secretary of State’s website shows a little more than 7 million registered auditors in the state.

It's Gatewaypundit, they haven't come out with an article yet that wasn't sloppy.

Per Georgia’s SOS report, there were 7.2M active voters (and 405k inactive voters) on the rolls for the 2020 election.


The numbers match up but also say 2.6 million voted early.

So you still have like 2 million unnecessary ballots just floating around out there.

That's just not secure.

Yes and the amount of registered voters in the last 10 years outpaces the amount of population growth. Registration is dramatically higher since 2012. I'd like to see somebody explain that one.

Are you saying there's a good chance your 3 voters were part of the switched votes?

Has anyone asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger how the state could mail out 1.4 million more ballots in the 2020 Election than there were registered voters?


Shiiiiit bro! Ruby Freeman had to get ahold of that stack somehow.

Being that I live in MTG’s district, I doubt it.

But you never know…

I received a request for a ballot in the mail, but not a ballot, and voted in person here in Georgia.

Why did Georgia mail out 7 million ballots in the 2020 Election when the state only had 5.6 million registered voters?

Only 4.8+ million votes counted though.

They automatically register people to vote when they get their driver’s license. Started in 2016, I believe.

That wasn’t tough. Next?

Not just Georgia.

Received two mail-in ballots just in this one-resident household.

Had any inkling of the cancer that was lurking under this seemingly "innocent mistake" would've saved them.

The wife and I received our unsolicited GA ballets…. At our home in East TN. I don’t know how they found us. We haven’t lived in GA for three years. We let our GA DLs expire and it’s our second TN residents.

An amendment to Senate Bill 463 would prohibit the Georgia secretary of state or county elections officials from sending out unsolicited absentee ballot applications. The amendment passed along a party-line vote, and the bill itself was approved by a majority of the committee.



Either way they are fixing it. Which is a good thing democrats.

But the influx in absentee ballots led to issues in many counties as local officials had to process those requests. Some voters didn’t get their ballots, while others got their ballots but chose to vote in person anyway. That snarled lines as poll workers labored to cancel those ballots.


Longer lines because of this snafu.
