Raffensperger said GA's election went "remarkably smooth." ..."successful election..."

Raffensperger says Biden carried the state of GA by approx 12K votes

Machine count, 100% hand recount, and another machine count all confirmed Biden won. Three counts all remarkably consistent.

Spox (I missed is name) but he's on video chewing trump out for inciting violence in GA, "....some people are going to get hurt, some are going to get shot, some are going to get killed."

(I really like his hearing impaired interpreter but I digress)

A young contractor receiving threats bc of a tweet/video posted by Qanon.

He went to twitter and saw the tweet, the contractor's name and a noose.
That prompted him to make that public statement.

trump released video of false claims of voter fraud in GA

now talking about the bs that poll watchers were kicked out and brought in suitcases of ballots.

Giuliani played video falsely claiming above.

Of course, we all know those were just ballot crates and that's how ballots are handled.

trump kept pushing the claim and now people's lives are being threatened.

GA reviewed 48 hours of video from the counting, which showed the county workers engaging in normal counting procedures. If you watch the full video, you could see election workers thought they were going home for the day, packed everything up, then were told they had to keep counting so they had to pull it all back out.

sometimes ballots "mis-scan" and they have to delete that batch and send the ballots back through. This is why some appeared to be scanned twice.

the 100% of ballots hand count confirmed nothing was double-scanned.

tfg, Aug. 24, during his Republican National Convention acceptance speech:
“The only way they can take this election away from us is if this is a rigged election,” Trump said.

I win or you cheated.

trump, in phone call to Francis Watson tells her "will be praised." if they find enough votes to give GA to trump. "whatever you can do."

28,000 GA voters skipped the presidential race, but voted down-ballot, which was enough to give the state to Biden.

listening to trump's call to Raffensperger who says every claim was false. He's detailing numbers, but "every allegation..we made sure our numbers were accurate." "The numbers were the numbers and we could not recalculate bc we made sure we checked......(crap, typing too slow but you get the gist.)"

trump yelling at Raffensperger after R told him he could send him a link to show GA's election was valid. trump did not like that at all.

trump retweeting bs about election fraud, shows Kemp and Raff wearing face masks of the Chinese flag(?) and saying both will soon go to jail for not flipping GA.

call of trump angrily arguing the ballots are being shredded "ballots are corrupt" "it's more illegal for you than it is for them bc you know what they did and you're not reporting it. That's a criminal offense. You can't let that happen. That's a big risk foryou and your lawyer. That's a big risk." I would say trump is yelling.

trump's "most explicit ask" "All I want to do is this, I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, bc we won the state."

Schiff is done with the witnesses. I think they're wrapping up.

Oops, I forgot about the GA election worker witness.

five minute recess. WTF did I turn on NBC? Now I'm listening to Chuck Todd.
FWIW I'm not sure NBC is watching the same hearing we are, they seemingly discounted Bower's testimony.

Ms Moss is the witness. Her mother, who was working with her, iirc, is sitting directly behind her.

She's been an election worker for 10 years.

She's never been threatened before. She's having microphone problems. Someone just helped her.

Schiff is back to question her.

She's practically in tears remembering the threats, jail, death, lynching. The flash drive Giuliani accuses her mother of passing to her was a "ginger mint."

Her testimony is heartbreaking. Her life, and her mother's, has been completely destroyed. They're afraid to go into public. They're afraid to even give their name out for orders.

I think I'm going to cry.

trump's vigilantes forced (or tried to force) their way into her grandmother's home to make a citizen's arrest of Ms Moss and her mother.

Large orders of pizza were sent to her grandmother's house, to be paid COD.
