The clip was posted on December 19, 2025.

A broke clock is correct twice a day.

That’s not a conspiracy theory.

However, that clock doesn’t keep accurate time.

I guess your point is that flawed results are okay, as long as the results aren’t grossly off to the point of being appealed.

What a tool that you are.

Now off to determining the "candidate received 0 votes" part is bullshite. We just need the name of the candidate OP is referencing to check.

Nobody said that. It's worthy of being corrected and criticized.


So, the person running got zero votes in the district that they voted in, it’s investigated, votes are found not counted and votes are rerouted, and you don’t think it’s worthy of discussion.

This is one district. Imagine what goes on nationwide.

I guess your assignment today is to try to get people from discussing voter fraud.

Did they?

Or is this bullshite?

Pretty sure this is bullshite. Which candidate got 0 votes? It's public record so verifying this should take less than 5 minutes

Almost all of the story in OP is nonsense


SFP was wrong…again

quote:

DeKalb VRE officials said the problem was seen when a comparison of the results showed that vote totals were displayed incorrectly at some precincts. The vote totals shown made it appear as if candidate Michelle Long Spears received zero votes in all but four precincts.

“I drove to my own precinct where my husband and I voted for myself and there were zero votes (for me),” said Long Spears during the public comment portion of the May 31 meeting. “In the end, I collected over a dozen photos of precincts with zero votes (for me) on Election Day. I sounded the alarm and we let the DeKalb VRE know about these discrepancies. It has been a difficult week for so many and I am left with so many questions. I hope the county gets to the bottom of this issue very soon and ensures that this does not happen in another race ever again so we can all feel confident in our system.”

Well it proves one thing. Proves that you wealthy college boys don't have the education enough to admit if you're wrong.

Ok so the election was wrong but some weird source says the precinct comment was correct.

The real story attacks the conspiracy theories.

Yes, there was a machine error.

We have safeguards in place that verified the actual results. This is proof the system works.

This happened in 2020, too.

quote:

Georgia’s top elections official on Monday recertified the state’s election results after a recount requested by President Donald Trump confirmed once again that Democrat Joe Biden won the state, and the governor then recertified the state’s 16 presidential electors.

“We have now counted legally cast ballots three times, and the results remain unchanged,” Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said during a news conference at the state Capitol before the results were recertified.

Georgia law allows a losing candidate to request a recount if the margin between the candidates is within 0.5%. Trump requested the recount after the results certified by Raffensperger showed that Biden led by a margin of 12,670 votes, or 0.25% of the roughly 5 million ballots cast.

During the recount, which was done using scanners that read and tally the votes, there were discrepancies in vote totals in some counties. Since the results of a recount become the official results, those counties had to recertify their results. Once that was done the secretary of state recertified the statewide results, his office said in a news release.

That weird source was the candidate who received zero votes.

The system only caught this because the candidate who was credited with zero votes started raising concern. What if they had been credited with 74 votes less than the supposed winner?

Then we would have issues

But what does this say about 2020?

2020 also relied on safeguards that confirmed the initial vote. So this story validates the results of 2020 in GA correct?

This has been discussed hundreds of times on here.

Simply counting ineligible votes over and over again without looking for ineligibility will yield the same results.

There was a time when GA was releasing 2020 ballot image and vote batch totals to the public and people looking at the data independently found piles of results like double and triple counted batches, duplicate ballots, and other inconsistencies.

This was just in Fulton county and was during “the system works” recount.

So the story in OP has no merit in discussing 2020, correct?

You asked me about 2020. I am not sure what your point here is.
