Trump allegations of election fraud in Georgia to be investigated

By David Singer - posted Wednesday, 24 March 2021


The Fulton County Superior Court decision on 15 March indicates the Committee's concerns in Fulton County will be addressed.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports:

Henry County Superior Court Judge Brian Amero - who is overseeing the case - said he's inclined to order the ballots to be unsealed and reviewed by experts hired by Garland Favorito, a voting-integrity advocate.

At a hearing Monday, Amero sought a detailed plan for maintaining the secrecy and security of the ballots, which - by state law - are under seal in the Fulton County Superior Court Clerk's Office.

"We want to do this in such a way that dispels rumors and disinformation and sheds light," Amero said at the hearing. "The devil's in the details."

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution report continues:

At Monday's hearing, Amero said he's willing to order the absentee ballots to be unsealed if he's assured their security will not be compromised. He requested a detailed plan, including who would review the ballots, how they would analyze them and how they would secure them.

The judge also discussed a protective order that would prohibit Favorito's experts from disclosing their work without permission from the court. And he plans to appoint a special master - perhaps a retired superior court judge - to oversee the analysis. If Amero allows it, the review of ballots could begin in late April.

"I can't sign an order until such time as I'm satisfied that the manner and method (of review) proposed by the petitioners is reasonable," the judge said.

Counterfeit ballots, election fraud – fact or fiction? This still remains an open question needing final closure.
