1. What types of illegal votes were cast in Georgia, as listed in the bullet points below paragraph #5 (and the video below that)?
2. Re-read the paragraph above and below the New York Times’ chart for Georgia’s “2020 Presidential Election Results.” The reporter points out that on election day, President Trump was ahead of Joe Biden by almost 104,000 votes. But the final results show Mr. Biden beating Trump by over 11,000 votes.
a) What do you think about the statistical probability of the votes for Biden increasing by groups of 4,800? Explain your answer.
b) What do you think about the contrast between the military votes for Trump in 2016 vs. the military votes for Biden in 2020 in Fulton County, Georgia?
3. a) Why did Georgia election officials stop the vote count on election night?
b) What two actions/facts led Republicans to question the validity of the reason for stopping the count?
4. An affidavit is the written version of swearing under oath to tell the truth, just as if you were testifying in a courtroom. If a witness lies in their sworn testimony in an affidavit, he/she can be prosecuted for the criminal offense of perjury. Describe the election fraud that registered Democrat Carlos Silva testified to witnessing in a signed affidavit.
5. What did a recount monitor discover in the hand recount in DeKalb Country, Georgia?
6. What problem was discovered in Walton County, Floyd County and Fayette County in a post-election audit and recount?
7. What complaint did multiple (Republican) poll observers (people who watch votes being counted) make about their ability to observe the counting and validity of the ballots?
8. There are multiple witnesses who testified before state legislative committees over the past month in the battleground states of Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, Pennsylvania and Nevada.
The week after the election, constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley (a liberal Democrat who said in 2019 that he does not support President Trump) said:
“You know, it was an odd thing to have so many people coming out and saying, ‘Look, there is no case to be made here.’ We’re still in the tabulation stage. You know, the information that would reflect a systemic problem or large numbers of balloting errors would come at the next stage, at the canvassing stage. Most of this information is held by election officials. And it often takes a court order to get that information to the opposing party.”
Turley, who is a professor at George Washington University Law School with decades of experience, said …"there is no reason not to look at the allegations, to give [74] million people who voted for Trump that sense of assurance that nothing untoward occurred and that their votes really did count.”
What responsibility do you think Congress and the courts have to hear these cases / claims of election fraud?
9. Internet, social media and news organizations:
For what reason(s) do you think Google, Facebook, Twitter and news organizations ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, The New York Times, The Washington Post, etc. will not report on the multiple witnesses and whistleblowers who have come forward, at great personal risk, to make these allegations (and have done so in sworn affidavits under penalty of perjury)? — Or, if reporting on the hundreds of allegations of voter fraud in multiple battleground states, do so only to note any claims of election fraud are “baseless” “unsubstantiated” “without merit” - and that witnesses are “discredited” and their testimonies have been “debunked”?
10. Watch the security camera video of cases of ballots being pulled out and counted after Republican observers were told to leave because the counting was over for the night. The media and Democrats have said this was legitimate and not any type of illegitimate activity. What do you think?
CHALLENGE:
The article above is just a part of a longer article detailing election fraud claims in multiple states (mostly the battleground states). Read it here.
Read the entire article and do an internet search for the state legislature hearings on the election fraud claims. Watch the witness testimony.
