From the AJC article that the OP links to in it's initial link:
The secretary of state’s office later admitted that it had made several programming errors in voting equipment that led to errors in how Spears and other candidates’ votes were tallied.
That triggered an attempted re-scan of the District 2 ballots, which ultimately led to a a hand count that concluded around midnight on Memorial Day.
The results of that count were
released Wednesday night — and showed Spears now leading the way and headed for a runoff with Alexander. Orson was in third place and out of contention for the scheduled June 21 runoff.
The hand count results suggested Spears had gained about 2,600 votes compared to the original count. Alexander had gained a few hundred. Orson had about 1,600 votes fewer than were reflected in the post-election day count.
Orson’s letter highlighted a number of issues reported with the District 2 race, including “a failure to provide a cogent and defensible explanation for the multiple discrepancies and issues in this race.”
“Numerous issues have been revealed regarding this race and it is imperative that the public have confidence that the results accurately reflect the will of the voters,” Orson wrote. “At this moment in time, the public cannot have such confidence.”
“
With the secretary of state’s office admitting that the programming error was on their end as far as bad reporting,” Jackson said, “the SOS and local elections offices have to look forward to the runoff and general election and plan on how they not let this happen again.”
Bad reporting? Several programming errors? Doesn't sound to me like a problem with the machines, but rather the people operating them and reporting the results. As in WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON HERE?
This occurred for the May 24 GA primary. Should I feel confident in the November general election? If this is going on in GA, why should I not wonder WTF is going on in AZ, NV, MI, WI, PA, and every other state?
