There are so many lies by Trump out there, amplified by his parrots in the increasingly detached and loony sycophantic alt-right media.
Fortunately, most of them are easy to debunk. Like the one about dead people voting in Georgia.
But Trump is going to continue to lie about voter fraud, and his followers will believe it, because cult.
Fortunately, most of them are easy to debunk. Like the one about dead people voting in Georgia.
Accusations of voter fraud continue to be in the headlines after last week's general election, including the claims that people who are dead voted. 11Alive confirmed that two of the four Georgia voters the president's campaign accused of fraudulently voting while “dead” are alive.
President Donald Trump’s campaign tweeted accusations claiming that James Blalock of Covington, who is deceased, voted in the election.
“The only problem? He passed away 14 years ago. Sadly, Mr. Blalock is a victim of voter fraud,” the tweet reads.
The accusations were amplified on national television.
“Mr. Blalock was a mailman for 33 years until he passed away in 2006. Fourteen years later, according to state records, he was still mailing things. James Blalock cast a ballot in last week’s election,” Tucker Carlson said in a clip and story labeled on Fox News' website as an opinion piece.
However, 11Alive was able to find out that James Blalock did not vote in last week’s election. Mrs. James Blalock did vote.
“He’s not voting. He didn’t vote,” Agnes Blalock told 11Alive. “It was me.”
Newton County officials confirmed that Agnes Blalock voted using her married name.
“Her voter registration was signed as Mrs. James E. Blalock, Jr. and that is exactly how she signed her name when she voted in the Nov. 3 general election,” officials said.
Two accused 'dead' Georgia voters very much alive despite claims - and they voted legally
