Trump campaign files plea for vote recount in Georgia

Washington, November 22

The Trump marketing campaign has filed a petition for recount of votes in Georgia, days after US President-elect Joe Biden wrested the Republican stronghold. Biden turned the primary Democrat to have gained the important thing battleground state since 1992 after a hand recount of almost 5 million votes, that lasted for a number of days.

Georgia hadn’t voted for a Democratic presidential candidate since Bill Clinton in 1992. In case of a recount, election officers in Georgia should re-scan the 5 million hand-recounted and audited authorized ballots.

“We are focused on ensuring that every aspect of Georgia State Law and the US Constitution are followed so that every legal vote is counted. President Trump and his campaign continue to insist on an honest recount in Georgia, which has to include signature matching and other vital safeguards,” the Trump marketing campaign stated in a late-night assertion on Saturday.

“Without signature matching, this recount would be a sham and again allow for illegal votes to be counted. If there is no signature matching, this would be as phony as the initial vote count and recount,” stated the assertion.

“Let’s stop giving the people false results,” stated the marketing campaign, a day after Georgia Secretary of State, who can be from the identical Republican Party, formally licensed the election outcomes which was narrowly gained by Biden.

After preliminary counting of votes within the state, Biden was main by about 14,000 votes, which prompted the Georgia Secretary of State to order a hand recount which diminished Biden’s lead barely to 12,284. Georgia has 16 electoral school votes.
