The same party in Georgia who passed a racist voting law based on their (hurt) FEELINGS and not data?

 

Now isn't this rich. Coming from a person who feels it's racist but has yet to point to what specifically makes it racists.

So you can't quote the actually TEXT of the Bill that calls for the reduction in the number of drop boxes so you take your ball and run home?

 

Par for the course.

I do not see the section you listed.  Quote the text that specifically reduces the number of drop boxes.   I did not depend on Fox News I depended on google.  Did you not like the second link I provided that had the same text of the Bill.  You didn't like my original source so I gave you a second. Would you like a third?

Point out where I'm wrong here. 

 

For the 2020 election, there were 94 drop boxes across the four counties that make up the core of metropolitan Atlanta: Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb and Gwinnett. The new law limits the same four counties to a total of, at most, 23 drop boxes, based on the latest voter registration data. The number could be lower depending on how many early-voting sites the counties provide.

Well there you go!  Good job.  So they picked the number of 1 drop box per 100,000 registered voters.  So that does in fact look like it reduces the number of drop boxes.   Now let's take this a step further.  Will this make it harder for those that live in rural, less populated counties to actually locate a drop box?

Well seeing no one has be able to point out what makes the Bill racist other than it "feels" racist sure makes it look like I understand what I'm saying.  

 

Do you agree with Biden that this Bill is Jim Crow on steroids?

ATLANTA)-Today, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced the results of the Risk Limiting Audit of Georgia’s presidential contest, which upheld and reaffirmed the original outcome produced by the machine tally of votes cast. Due to the tight margin of the race and the principles of risk-limiting audits, this audit was a full manual tally of all votes cast. The audit confirmed that the original machine count accurately portrayed the winner of the election. The results of the audit can be viewed HERE , HERE , and HERE .

“Georgia’s historic first statewide audit reaffirmed that the state’s new secure paper ballot voting system accurately counted and reported results,” said Secretary Raffensperger. “This is a credit to the hard work of our county and local elections officials who moved quickly to undertake and complete such a momentous task in a short period of time.”

“Georgia’s first statewide audit successfully confirmed the winner of the chosen contest and should give voters increased confidence in the results,” said Ben Adida, Executive Director of VotingWorks. “We were proud to work with Georgia on this historic audit. The difference between the reported results and the full manual tally is well within the expected error rate of hand-counting ballots, and the audit was a success.” 

By law, Georgia was required to conduct a Risk Limiting Audit of a statewide race following the November elections. Understanding the importance of clear and reliable results for such an important contest, Secretary Raffensperger selected the presidential race in Georgia for the audit. Meeting the confidence threshold required by law for the audit meant conducting a full manual tally of every ballot cast in Georgia.

The Risk Limiting Audit reaffirmed the outcome of the presidential race in Georgia as originally reported, with Joe Biden leading President Donald Trump in the state. 

The audit process also led to counties catching making mistakes they made in their original count by not uploading all memory cards. Those counties uploaded the memory cards and re-certified their results, leading to increased accuracy in the results the state will certify.

The differential of the audit results from the original machine counted results is well within the expected margin of human error that occurs when hand-counting ballots. A 2012 study  by Rice University and Clemson University found that “hand counting of votes in postelection audit or recount procedures can result in error rates of up to 2 percent.” In Georgia’s recount, the highest error rate in any county recount was .73%. Most counties found no change in their finally tally. The majority of the remaining counties had changes of fewer than ten ballots.

Because the margin is still less than 0.5%, the President can request a recount after certification of the results. That recount will be conducted by rescanning all paper ballots.

Dies this match your definition of data?  If not, speaking as a scientist you don’t understand what data means.

I’m not a scientist or a data analyst, but I’m pretty good at recognizing tendencies with respect to human behavior. 
 

I inquired about specific data—memos, files, notes, documents, anything—on the Georgia law you claim disenfranchises black voters in areas, and how that data buttresses  your deeply held personal belief that Trump lies lead to where Georgia is today.  
 

You forwarded a press release from a political insider dealing with an audit of the 2020 election that I haven’t contested in thought, word, or deed.  
 

I don’t need a PhD in  Biomechanicalethoquantamphysical Engineering to know that one of these things is not like the other.  I learned that on Sesame Street.
