(Reuters) - Georgia's Republican Secretary of State said on Wednesday there was no sign yet of widespread fraud in his state's vote count, where Democratic President-elect Joe Biden currently has a 14,000 vote lead over President Donald Trump.

Brad Raffensperger, in an interview with CNN, said he has ordered a hand recount because of the closeness of the vote count, but he believed votes had so far been tallied accurately. Biden's current lead, with nearly all votes counted, is 0.3%.

Asked about voter fraud, Raffensperger said: "We have ongoing investigations but we have not seen something widespread." He added there was no evidence yet of any discrepancies large enough that could reverse Biden's lead.

Raffensperger said he also believed a hand recount, which he wants completed by Nov. 20, will not overturn the machine count that is near completion. "We believe the ballots were counted accurately," he said.

4. GA's two GOP senators are calling on him to resign for not

stealing their reelections for them, and to appease Trump and his cultists ahead of the next try.

5. He already said he won't resign.

He got elected in 2018 and it's not going anywhere. But he is still trying to appease Trumpers as far as I am concerned, by ordering the hand recount (which they have to call an audit, since GA doesn't required automatic recounts) of a presidential race.
