Georgia Dems Announce They Just Found Thousands of New Ballots

More surprise ballots have shown up in yet another election, nearly a week after the midterms.


This time the surprise has come in Georgia, where the Democrat office there is reporting a new batch of absentee, early, and election day votes that were somehow not counted.


Meanwhile, Stacy Abrams, the Obama and Oprah-backed candidate is being pressured to concede the race.


Per NBC 5, Democratic candidate Stacey Abrams was being pushed Saturday to concede in the race for Georgia’s governor, a day after her Republican counterpart Brian Kemp started his transition into the new role.




It’s been four days since voters cast their ballots in the race but despite Kemp claiming victory, no one has called the race for either candidate. Kemp is currently ahead by about 60,000 votes and says it is mathematically impossible for Abrams to win.

Abram’s campaign manager refuses to concede, claiming Governor-Elect Kemp is "lying" about the vote totals.


From Washington Times


There may be hope yet for Stacey Abrams, the Democratic candidate for governor.


The Democratic Party of Georgia tweeted Saturday evening that a "handful" of Georgia counties reported thousands of "new" absentee, early, and Election Day votes not accounted for by Republican candidate Brian Kemp.


Kemp, who resigned as secretary of state on Thursday, has asserted victory even though the race has not been called and Abrams has yet to concede.


The latest vote tally on the Georgia secretary of state’s website shows Kemp leading by more than a percentage point. Kemp had 1,975,806 votes to Abrams’ 1,916,931 — a margin of 58,875 votes — leading 50.28 percent to Abrams’ 48.78 percent. The Libertarian candidate, Ted Metz, had a mere 37,149 votes and 0.95 percent of the vote.


Earlier in the day, Kemp’s campaign argued that it was "mathematically impossible" for Abrams to pull ahead or get close enough to trigger a recount, even with the remaining uncounted provisional and military ballots.


But, Abram’s campaign manager Lauren Groh-Wargo shot back, saying Kemp "lied" about the numbers.


Recounts were triggered for three close races in Florida on Saturday, including for the U.S. Senate and governor contests.
