At the center of the problem were unsigned tabulation tapes, a basic safeguard required to certify election results. Even Ann Brumbaugh, an attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections, acknowledged that the tapes were never signed.<br \/>Those signatures are the only legal confirmation that reported vote totals are legitimate. Without them, confidence in Fulton County\u2019s 2020 results erodes quickly. The stakes were enormous given Georgia\u2019s razor-thin outcome, with Joe Biden declared the winner by just over 11,000 votes. Taken together, these findings make it increasingly clear that concerns about Georgia\u2019s 2020 election deserved far more serious attention than they received.<br \/>\u201cThe main election office in Union City was the target of the search, though the FBI did not elaborate on why they were interested in the facility,\u201d reports Steph Whiteside at NewsNation. \u201cGeorgia was one of the states at the center of President Donald Trump\u2019s repeated claims that the 2020 election was stolen.\u201d<br \/>In fact, Trump\u2019s claims that the Democrats stole the election in Georgia led Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to try to prosecute Trump and over a dozen other co-defendants under Georgia\u2019s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. We all know how that turned out \u2014 if you don\u2019t, check out my coverage of the whole debacle.<br \/>Here\u2019s hoping the raid will reveal some things about the Fulton County situation that we suspected might have been the case. The county that allegedly froze out Republican poll watchers and count watchers and took way longer than it should to count votes ought to see accountability for any shenanigans.<br \/>But here\u2019s the thing: changing the 2020 election in Georgia to a Trump win is nothing more than a moral victory, albeit a satisfying one. Those of us who have been sounding the alarm that Georgia isn\u2019t the blue or purple state, as too many people have claimed, can smugly assert our rightness. That\u2019s a football I\u2019ll spike until the day I die if the FBI can somehow make that happen.<br \/>But all it is is a pyrrhic victory. Even if there\u2019s enough evidence to swing the election for Trump, Georgia only has 16 electoral votes. The final electoral college total was 306 for Biden and 232 for Trump, so flipping Georgia would change the total to 290-248. It\u2019s a lot closer, but it still leaves Trump 22 electoral college votes short of a win.<br \/>The other part of this equation is that, unless the FBI is working on some really cool time-travel technology, flipping Georgia red for 2020 won\u2019t undo the Biden years. It won\u2019t reverse the lawfare that that administration undertook. It won\u2019t undo the otherization of the unvaccinated. It won\u2019t erase the Independence Hall speech that made Biden look like the authoritarian that the left wants Trump to be. And it won\u2019t undo the autopen.<br \/>So while we can watch the FBI search on Fulton County\u2019s elections office with interest and hope that the news turns our way, it\u2019s a merely philosophical exercise. Sure, it\u2019ll give us loads of satisfaction, but it won\u2019t change anything concrete.<br \/>The FBI raid didn\u2019t come with answers \u2014 but PJ Media does.<br \/>While the legacy media rushes to downplay what just happened in Fulton County, our writers are digging into what it really means and why it matters \u2014 even now.<br \/>Because truth is worth fighting for.<\/p>\n<script>jQuery(function(){jQuery(\".vc_icon_element-icon\").css(\"top\", \"0px\");});<\/script><script>jQuery(function(){jQuery(\"#td_post_ranks\").css(\"height\", \"10px\");});<\/script><script>jQuery(function(){jQuery(\".td-post-content\").find(\"p\").find(\"img\").hide();});<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FBI raid on Fulton County elections office raises questions about Georgia&#8217;s 2020 election integrity.
