1. Ok please tell us what state this is. We don't all know every county in the USA I'm confused

[lark]

3. Think GA elections office is the clue.

Hey, I get it. Today is stressful, I had a hard time getting to sleep and woke up early today, nervous, excited, anxious as hell.

[mucifer]

6. oops I'm sleepy sorry.

8. Georgia, South if Atlanta

sorta between Atlanta & Macon, Ga.

As of the 2010 United States Census, there were 64,073 people, 23,565 households, and 16,869 families living in the county.[13] The population density was 326.1 inhabitants per square mile (125.9/km2). There were 26,777 housing units at an average density of 136.3 per square mile (52.6/km2).[14] The racial makeup of the county was 62.7% white, 32.8% black or African American, 0.9% Asian, 0.3% American Indian, 0.1% Pacific islander, 1.6% from other races, and 1.6% from two or more races.

9. I posted this in the Georgia group. I'd just added GA for clarity before I saw your post.

I post purely GA news in the Georgia group.

I’m in Northeast Georgia.

[mucifer]

12. I apologize I didn't look closely. My fault.

[CottonBear]

20. No problem! It's early. I hardly slept last night. GA has 159 counties!

The U.S. state of Georgia is divided into 159 counties, more than any other state except for Texas, which has 254 counties. Under the Georgia State Constitution, all of its counties are granted home rule to deal with problems that are purely local in nature. Also, eight consolidated city-counties have been established in Georgia: Athens–Clarke County, Augusta–Richmond County, Columbus–Muscogee County, Georgetown–Quitman County, Statenville–Echols County, Macon–Bibb County, Cusseta–Chattahoochee County, and Preston-Webster County.

2. Georgia . . ...

trying to steal it again

[dware]

19. This is in a very red part of GA,

so unless the Dems are responsible for this, which is zero probability, then this isn't GA trying to steal the election, it's a tech. issue.

[pdxflyboy]

4. I think it's Georgia. n/t

[Yonnie3]

5. Provisional ballots are being provided

Going to be slow

7. Rural county ...?

does anyone know offhand???

[beachbumbob]

17. yep, its rural county so hiccups will effect GOP voters more so than democratic ones

[getagrip_already]

10. Biggest city is griffin by looks of it... was trump country last time I was there....

Which admittedly has been a while. But this is not some densely packed urban area. Wiki shows only 65k residents.

[DemoTex]

11. I grew up in Spalding County (Griffin), Georgia

Located about forty miles south of Atlanta. John Henry “Doc” Holliday was from there.

[CottonBear]

27. Hi!

I didn’t know about Doc Holliday!

Did you know the Brown family in Griffin? They own one of those old Greek Revival mansions.

[beachbumbob]

13. Spaulding county is a rather small rural county isn;t it?

[liberalla]

14. Of course they are! It's Georgia! Phuck!!!

[dware]

21. Maybe you should read the article,

this county is a very red county, so, unless the Dems are responsible for this glitch, which is zero possibility, then this is exactly what the article says it is, a tech. glitch.

[rzemanfl]

23. Or part of the Russian psyop and plan, if one is paranoid, like me. n/t

[dware]

25. That old saying

Just because one is paranoid doesn't mean that someone isn't out to get you.

I tend to believe it's a tech glitch as the article says.

I don't care if it's a red or blue area, all votes need to be counted, period.

[rzemanfl]

28. I am quite certain that Drumpf's "legal team" is following this closely.

Technical glitch or not. Maybe they will blame Hunter Biden's laptop.

[dware]

30. Yep, their inevitable excuse,

Hunter Biden, Hunter Biden, etc.

They are providing provisional ballots, so the votes will be counted.

[OneBro]

15. Reportedly went 16 points for Trump in 2016

From comments in the Twitter thread, 60% voted Trump in 2016.

[still_one]

16. This is really unacceptable

[dware]

22. It really is,

all votes, no matter what political party, needs to be counted.

[still_one]

24. agreed

[sweetloukillbot]

18. Sucks to be all those Republicans who waited nt

[Atticus]

26. Since this is a red county, it will be "deep state election rigging" in 3, 2, 1-----nt

[rzemanfl]

29. +1 n/t.

[CottonBear]

31. Update: problems have been fixed
