Georgia officials said that human error led to 2,600 ballots being uncounted from Floyd County, which will likely lessen the lead of former Vice President Joe Biden over President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election.
Georgia’s voting implementation manager Gabriel Sterling explained to reporters on Monday where the uncounted ballots came from.
“Well what it is, is they had these ballots in their ballot manifests, they had them there and they were counted in the audit. When they finished the audit, they had like 40,000 votes, when on the election night reporting they only had 38,000 votes, and that’s how it was discovered,” said Sterling.
“So that’s where we came across this, and then they kinda back-figured that they came from those early vote results that were not uploaded,” he added. “But that’s where we’re having an investigator to button up exactly where their breakdown came.”
He said that the “amazing blunder” came from someone not uploading the ballot count from a memory card into a ballot machine.
“It’s not an equipment issue. It’s a person not executing their job properly. This is the kind of situation that requires a change at the top of their management side,” Sterling said.
The ballots that were found included 1,643 new votes for Trump and 865 new votes for Biden, giving the president a boost. Sterling said that the new votes would not change the results of the Georgia presidential election because it would not be enough to change the outcome.
“It looks like it’s about an 800 plus vote swing towards the president on this, but the lead statewide is 14,155, so that would take it down to 13,300 and something, I believe,” Sterling said.

At least Georgians can admit to mistakes where as other states don’t have the same morals and ethics.
Why can’t people take responsibility for errors and mistakes? At least don’t be honest after claiming no misdoings.
Actually some of these people should be in jail serving time especially the managers and supervisors who are responsible for everything that happens.
Just own up to it and be a true American even a little would be better than all the adjectives to make themselves feel better about them selfs.
True Americans don’t need to be anything other than themselves.
Maybe someone should explain to Americans there were White indentured slaves (from England) before Black slaves turn up on the seen.
Rethink before you post…Slaves were stolen!!! Not just showing up!! Obviously, there are no true Americans… Indians were killed and place on reservations because they were here first… That’s why a ONE man show will NEVER LEAD SMART AMERICANS by spreading fake news (MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN) because he and his followers are stuck trying to rewrite HISTORY…… This is a New AMERICA read it and weep… EVERY AMERICANS VOTE WILL COUNT!
You left out one word EVERY LEGAL AMERICAN VOTE WILL COUNT and I add for ALL PARTIES !!!
You sanctimonious and delusional individual
Yeah, the only “Mistakes” made here, is that the theft was discovered, and now the officials responsible are trying to back pedal it! If this is true, that ballots were “unintentionally” not recorded, then doesn’t it make sense that there would be similar “unrecorded” ballots in other counties? Or does that make too much sense?
And, those who are doing this, they are trying to destroy the America we were born to! They want to remake it into something we, even those responsible for the destruction, really won’t want!
And, as for the “Indentured Servants” you mention, many of them were young women from Ireland, forced into arranged marriages with African slaves, the spawn of which was also property of the owner! Hamilton be damned! There was much worse slavery at that time, and, it still exists today! And guess which politicians are trying to protect their friends and themselves from prosecution for it?
SATAN, we know you for who and what you are, and your name is Democrat Politician…
You are so right!
If you are looking for a reason to discredit Georgians voting rights than you can find one.. Georgians will never have our rights suppressed or considered non- in – void!!! We stand firm on our selection for change and remain encouraged to vote OUT NON-FACTORS that don’t support the AMERICAN PEOPLE! The RHETORIC that supports the Republicans don’t support the families that are looking for change. This is not a David Cavorchian (CULT) or a Giana tragedy. This is our lively hood that’s being effected therefore the Georgians, Nevadians and Pennsylvanians have spoken! This is our resolution to be out with the old and usher in new ideologies!!! Our stance is to PROTECT our DEMOCRACY from A one man COMMUNIST!!!!! Our country should never be divided based on LIES because there are those that can fight for change. OUR VOTE COUNT!!!!!!
Sweetie, you really should learn how to spell, you know! Bless your heart, of COURSE we want your vote to count! But, we only want it to count ONCE! And, if you want to protect your Democracy from a Communist, why in the world would you ever vote DEMOCRAT? Have you never read the Democrat Platform? Why don’t you do a little research for yourself, rather than believe the LIES you have been spoon fed since LBJ! Oh, and it’s KAVORCIAN, or something, with a “K”, you mindless twit! And, if you really believe the Democrats are for the AMERICAN PEOPLE, you, sadly, are an idiot! Ignorance can be educated, but, stupidity is forever! Believe me when I say, you will one day regret what you have advocated…
I really feel bad for Juliette, she is sl delusional. I really don’t know who would fill her head with such nonsense . She needs to get back to reality.
Please…you obviously have no idea what you’re talking about, especially WRT communists. Democrats have done more to threaten the sovereignty of this nation, than any foreign power could dream of. Ever since Madeline Albright lamented the US role as sole superpower following the collapse of the USSR, Democrats have done all they can to “level the playing field,” especially with our communist enemies.
Within a single decade, Bill Clinton helped turn China from a developing nation into a superpower. From removing sanctions and circumventing export control laws, Clinton allowed China to acquire previously prohibited and proprietary technologies, as he pushed for permanent MFN status and WTO membership.
It wasn’t a coincidence that Hillary would end up a Sec of State under Obama. This time, instead of China it would be Russia as Hillary’s “Russian Reset” would see millions in investment poured into Skolkovo Russia, as Putin would be allowed to acquire previously prohibited technologies from US high tech firms.
Whether it was Bill Clinton’s failed Agreed Framework with N Korea or Obama’s similarly, ridiculous Iran nuclear deal that saw Billions in cash go to a leading terrorist nation, Democrats have done more to threaten National Security than anything Trump was accused of. Just the hypocrisy of accusing Trump of being owned by Putin and Russian oligarchs is amazing when you look at the millions that poured into the Clinton Foundation-from Russian oligarchs, for plenty of services rendered. If it wasn’t for “Projection” democrats wouldn’t have an original thought in their heads.
Trump supporters are the ones who are really delusional and should get back to reality. Wake up!!!!!!!
