How Georgia's hand-counting of ballots could make way for a second Trump term

Donald Trump's allies on the Georgia Election Board are changing the certification process just weeks before the polls open, including forcing the entire state to hand count results. Mother Jones correspondent Ari Berman shares why Georgia's new protocol could cause major delays and help put Trump back in the White House.

This is BS, The dem's LAWYERS BETTER BE ON TOP OF THIS BS

[claing-ndtb]

Why isn't the media talking about this much more to inform the Dem voting public instead of constantly pushing trump tabloid stories that we really don't care about?

[warp..scotty]

Raffensberger needs to intervene. He already warned them about this crap

[barbarasledge]

I suggest the Dems don't leave the white house....due to the supreme Court ruling....

[Dragonmist]

When someone blatantly cheats, you know they're losers 😡💙💙💙

[joelkiyiapi]

Can't Democrats go to Georgia Supreme Court for this untimely rule.

[stuvo]

I can't believe this is actually happening in 2024.

[dstarrII]

I just wonder how many black votes will be thrown out with this hand counting

[allu]

Georgia... Vote 💙 so there's NO doubt of the winner. 🙏

[elaineisabelle]

Trump knows he can't win if he doesn't cheat. Voting blue 💙💙🌊🗽🗳️🌊🗽

How is this news and not getting lawsuits left and right

I'm so sick of hearing about a cooperate criminal.

[kar-rif]

They better Hire Both Parties to count if it comes to that.

[vanessajazp]

I do hope they will challenge this in court and get it changed. It's too soon before the election to start changing all the rules. Are they going to change even more rules the day of the election?

[rickettsdave]

Secretary of State and Govener blasts the ruling but is taking no action to remove the board members and change the rules back which they can do if they want. In other words, look at me I am not supporting this autocratic move but don't worry I won't change it because I want to be the State to help appoint Trump. And then Trump won't be mad at me anymore.

Abolish the Electoral College! Americans deserve to have the right to vote and have it matter how they voted. We need to decide elections by counting the popular vote. Not have these arcane and twisted electoral schemes like the Electoral College.

This man has caused so many problems in this country, I dont understand how he keeps getting away with it.

[bianca-sgzq]

How is the DOJ allowing this to happen?? Couping in plain sight???🗳💙💪🏾

[obinnayoung]

The FBI and CIA should keep a close eye on this.
