Georgia: Summary of Testimony from December 3, 2020 Hearing

Standing Senate Judiciary Committee Election Law Study Subcommittee Report
By Honorable William T. Ligon, Chairman, December 17, 2020

Six Georgia senators released a 15-page report of their December 3, 2020 hearing about irregularities in Georgia’s November General Election. They studied election law, the recount and audit processes, investigations, litigation, and issues related to the January 5, 2021 runoffs.

Subcommittee Findings
1. The November 3, 2020 election was chaotic and the results cannot be trusted.
2. The Secretary of State (SOS) and the State Elections Board (SEB) failed to enforce the law as written in the Georgia Code, and furthermore, created policies that contravened State law. As Senator Matt Brass concluded in the December 3 hearing, “We have heard evidence that State law was not followed time after time after time.”
3. The SOS failed to have a transparent process for the verification of signatures for absentee ballots, for the counting of votes during the subsequent recount and audit, and for providing the type of guidance and enforcement necessary to ensure that monitors and other observers had meaningful access to the process.
4. The SOS instituted an unconstitutional gag order so that monitors were told not to use photography or video recording devices during the recount.
5. Election officials at all levels failed to secure test ballots and actual ballots. Many reports indicate that proper procedures were not followed, and there was systematic failure to maintain appropriate records of the chain of custody for these ballots, both prior to and after voting and throughout the recount.
6. The SOS and Election Supervisors failed to stop hostile behavior of workers toward citizen volunteer monitors during the recount process.
7. The events at the State Farm Arena are particularly disturbing because they demonstrated intent on the part of election workers to exclude the public from viewing the counting of ballots, an intentional disregard for the law. The number of votes that could have been counted in that length of time was sufficient to change the results of the presidential election and the senatorial contests. Furthermore, there appears to be coordinated illegal activities by election workers themselves who purposely placed fraudulent ballots into the final election totals.
8. Grants from private sources provided financial incentives to county officials and exerted influence over the election process.
9. Oral testimonies of witnesses on December 3, 2020, and subsequently, written testimonies submitted by many others, provide ample evidence that the 2020 Georgia General Election was so compromised by systemic irregularities and voter fraud that it should not be certified.

Lawsuits Reveal Georgia Election Fraud

Listed chronologically by date are facts revealed in successive lawsuits filed against Governor Kemp, Secretary of State (SOS) Brad Raffensperger, Georgia State Election Board1members and a case brought against specific election officials in 15 Georgia counties.

November 25, 2020. This 104-page lawsuit listing six plaintiffs3 explains Georgia‟s rush-into-use of Dominion Voting Systems with software allowing computerized ballot-stuffing and vote manipulation over the internet. Page 5 states: “A core requirement of the Smartmatic software design was the software‟s ability to hide its manipulation of votes from any audit.” Physical evidence uncontrovertibly confirms that the software was breached and the machines were connected to the internet in violation of state and federal laws.

A former electronic intelligence analyst under 305th Military Intelligence and SAM missile system electronic intelligence confirmed this: “Dominion software was accessed by agents acting on behalf of China and Iran in order to monitor and manipulate elections, including the most recent US general election in 2020.” Another expert concludes that “hundreds of thousands” of votes cast for President Trump in 2020 were transferred to candidate Joe Biden.

Although the analysis of election illegalities is extensive in this lawsuit, page 11 tells us this: “At least 96,600 votes were illegally counted during the Georgia 2020 general election.” From that, subtract Biden‟s 12,670 vote victory to learn that President Trump won Georgia by 73,930 votes. Page 17 reveals that 66,247 ballots were cast by under-voting-age individuals. Those votes were counted, although the mid-teen individuals had been illegally registered.

March 6, 2020 the SOS and Democrat Party Agencies signed a “Compromise and Settlement Agreement and Release.” Although the SOS has no power to change law, (a) he directed county administrators to override election law and (b) he weakened the absentee ballot signature law.

Plaintiffs Asked the Court for 15 Judgments, including the following:

  • Order Governor Kemp, SOS Raffensperger and Board of Elections to decertify the election;
  • Order Governor Kemp to certify President Trump as the winner of the election;
  • Order voting machines immediately seized and impounded for a forensic audit;
  • Order expert inspection of all voting machines and software in Georgia;
  • Declare that the SOS Rule modifying election laws violates the U.S. Constitution.
  • Declare that the certified election results violate the U.S. Constitution‟s Due Process Clause.
  • Issue six judgments to remedy multiple evidence-supported election law violations;
  • Prohibit the Governor and SOS from certifying election results to the Electoral College; and
  • Require remedial action to eliminate mail-in and absentee ballot fraud.
