    And it went from 6% in 2016 to 3% in 2018. Things that have changed since 2018 election: GA passed a law that require official to notify voters of rejected ballots and to give them a chance to correct them (it's no longer rejected once voter correct mistakes - that could be anything from an address to a signature mismatch). Massive media attention and education due to massive interest in mail-in ballots in 2020 (I recall so much fear about ballot rejections and how it was a risky bet by the DEM to push that). Stacey Abrams's Fair Fight.

    What's the national rejection average? In 2016, 0.77% of ballots were rejected nationwide. WI has ~3M absentee voting and 0.18% of it was rejected.

    0.24% (assuming that's accurate - I saw number in the 0.1 to 1%) is not extradentary weird. It certainly is possible and it does not automatically mean FRAUD! Could there be some fraud or cheat - yes, but guess what - we need real evidences and investigations.

    Note how easily it is to be alarming (fraud!) now. Where was that in 2016? 2012? 2008? 2004? 2000? Oh, it's there, just that it gets rejected and people don't pay much attention to it. People once like to see hard evidences and investigation. Now? Lots of quick take from twitters and social media alarms.

    It doesn’t matter after Jan 20th. But I wonder if he can sue for wrongful termination - you know, termination based on lies.

    Each Republican senator should be reminded about this era for each day of the rest of their miserable lives, (be it just a few more COVID-infested days or several years). They really could have stood up to the incompetent, criminal bully.

    That seems desperate on her part.

    Who does she think cares about what Castro did in Georgia at any time.

    I'm thinking going the Trump lite route is gonna backfire on her in this election, even Trumpers are gonna be tired of it and stay home because its not actually Trump on the ballot.

    Or maybe it's because all of the new voter registration and signatures did not change much?

    You do know that the Georgia entire legislative body is Republican right?

    Are they now black hats?
