The big story for yesterday was a continuation of a previous one. The facts are not much in dispute. On election night, in Fulton County, Georgia (that's Atlanta), counting was halted for a "water main break", which turned out to be minor leak. Counting was halted and observers sent home. Soon afterwards, poll workers came back to work, and continued running ballots through the machines, without any observers. This coincided with a massive influx of votes for Biden, which put him over the top in Georgia. What changed in the last couple of days, though, was surveillance camera footage of the event, showing, that upon return, the poll workers began pulling boxes, or bags or suitcases (the photos aren't that clear, although they have wheels), out from under the tables, and counting those ballots.

They lied to the observers and told them there would be no more counting.
When they left, they took out four suitcases filled with ballots hidden under a table and... started counting.

As for whether I would vote in Georgia—academic in my case—yes, in the end, of course I would. But I might pretend I wasn’t going to for a while, just to keep certain people’s feet to the fire.

Joy Pullman at Da Fed, Were Insecure Voting Processes This Year’s ‘Insurance Policy’ For Democrats? It certainly looks that way.
No one can blame voters for being confused before, during, or after the election. It was confusing. It is confusing. Democrats filed the lawsuits that caused the uncertainty, decided they would simply declare victory amid the ongoing chaos they deliberately created, and let media and courts seal the steal. It worked perfectly — except that the election was so unexpectedly close, people noticed.

Voter fraud is as old as our Republic. But it hasn’t always been widespread and well-organized. This is an overview that will help show how we got here. This Heritage Foundation publication provides great information on the basics of fraud and safeguards to maintain election integrity. It’s not hard, or complicated. It just requires a willingness to fight.
When researching I found that fraud mostly goes one way. Democrat Party candidates benefit from it way more often. Yes, there is Republican voter fraud, but Republicans think small scale. Republicans (to quote Newt Gingrinch) have been busily concentrating on campaigns, while Democrats focus on elections. Two very different strategies, priorities, values, and rules of engagement.
Newt drilled deeper: Republicans play a sprightly and genteel game of badminton while the Democrats grunt in the mud playing contact football. For all of the pink hats Democrats wore proudly four years ago, Republicans are the real pussies.

Another reason is that we have -- or had -- a norm against delegitimizing election results. In 1960, Richard Nixon chose to observe that norm and not challenge results in multiple states. In 2000, Al Gore contested the results in Florida but conceded after the final court ruling and segued from electoral politics to issue advocacy.
Not so in 2016.
In violation of longstanding norms, Obama administration intelligence and law enforcement agencies spied on the opposition party campaign. Officials proffered the dodgy Steele dossier before the FISA court without revealing it was paid for by Hillary Clinton's campaign.
In violation of longstanding norms, Democrats refused to accept the result as legitimate. "I will not accede to this. I will resist," tweeted liberal think tank head Neera Tanden (President-elect Joe Biden's choice to head the Office of Management and Budget) five days after the election. Democrats took to calling themselves "the Resistance," suggesting the Trump administration was morally equivalent to the pro-Hitler Vichy regime in France.
Again and again, leading Democrats -- Hillary Clinton, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, the late Rep. John Lewis, Joe Biden, Jimmy Carter -- called Trump an "illegitimate" president. For three years, Democrats advanced the Russia-collusion hoax without finding or producing any evidence except for the discredited Steele dossier.
