Probe: 94% of key 2020 counties wrongly dumped ballot info

A new investigation into the record keeping of 100 key 2020 battleground counties found that nearly all threw out or mishandled voting documentation they are supposed to keep for 22 months in case an audit is called.
Instead of complying with the 22-month requirement spelled out in the Civil Rights Act of 1960, 94 counties reported that they did not keep or sloppily handled information showing the vote.
As a result, it is impossible to get the number of ballots to equal the number of those who voted, in some cases leaving huge gaps.
“One of the most basic ways to ensure election transparency is to verify if the number of votes counted equals the number of people listed as voting,” said a new report from Trump aligned America First Policy Institute.
“Of the 100 total counties, only six counties properly retained the voter files from the 2020 general election,” said the report written by AFPI Chief of Staff Stephen Smith and John Lott, president of the Crime Prevention Research Center.
Their report was aimed at encouraging better vote record keeping of federal level elections, not to add fuel to any attempt to overturn the 2020 election.
While not accusing anyone of hanky panky with the votes, the reports raised significant questions about gaps between votes received and those who voted, in some cases enough to potentially change election results. It also gave examples of other improperly handled information in some states, including the trashing of video taken during vote counting.
Even in the six counties that kept the data, the average “discrepancy” between the number of people voting and the number of ballots cast was 2.8%, the highest being 8.8% in Georgia’s Cobb County.
In presenting their report in the Federalist, the duo wrote, “Cobb County, Georgia, had a massive discrepancy of 34,893 votes, or 8.8%. All but one of the precincts had more ballots cast than voters. The gap was more than two and half times the 13,471 votes Republican David Perdue fell short of winning in Georgia’s first round Senate race in November 2020.”
They added in their report, “That gap, in a county that President Joe Biden carried by 14 percentage points, was three times President Biden’s winning margin in Georgia in 2020.”
