The president, the chair of the Georgia Republican Party and every member of the state's 2021 Republican U.S. House delegation have contributed to the attacks on Raffensperger, Gov. Brian Kemp and how elections are run in Georgia. Both of Georgia's Republican U.S. senators, Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, called on Raffensperger to resign last week in an evidence-free letter alleging massive failures. Loeffler and Perdue are both on the ballot for Jan. 5 runoffs that will determine control of the Senate.
Trump Requests Georgia Recount, Meaning 5 Million Votes Will Be Tabulated A 3rd Time
The recount process is expected to take several days, with officials in Atlanta's Fulton County estimating anywhere from five to nine days of eight-hour shifts, with multiple scanners to get through more than half a million votes.
The machine recount is unlikely to change the results. It is also more accurate than the hand-count audit, which confirmed Biden's victory over Trump and was within 0.10% of the original number of ballots counted.

They are actually checking to see if they have signatures this time.
Go figure
"As the Secretary of State said, there is no reason to believe there are widespread errors or fraud and the Trump campaign has no evidence to back up their baseless claims," Jaclyn Rothenberg said in a statement. "With regards to signature matching, both parties were aware of the rules set forth months before the election and all signatures have already been matched."

He knows they helped by shredding the evidence so only real votes are left. LOL

Absentee ballot return envelopes are printed with an oath which must be signed by the voter.
The identifying information in the oath is compared with information on file in the clerk’s office, and the signature on the oath is compared with the signature on the absentee ballot application.
Ballots that do not conform are rejected. A voter is notified of the rejection.
He called for Raffensperger to "consider addressing these concerns" and conduct a "sample of audit of signatures on absentee ballot envelopes and compare those to the signatures on applications and on file that the secretary of state's office."
When was the SECOND Georgia recount?

Since only .04% of mailed-in ballots were rejected, when the norm is over 1.3%, it's obvious that the millions of mailed-in ballots overwhelmed the system...the law regarding VERIFYING them was not followed. (This applies to most states in 2020)

The audit that is being requested is different than the hand count.

Georgia Gov Kemp wants every mailed-in ballot signature matched to a lawfully registered voter, or the ballot is discarded, per Georgia law.
