State Election Board raises more questions about tabulation tapes

(The Center Square) – The Georgia State Election Board voted to send a letter to the attorney general’s office requesting a closer look at Fulton County tabulation tapes not signed in the 2020 election.

An investigation into the unsigned tabulation tapes that included 315,000 votes came to light at a December meeting of the election board. New procedures were put in place to ensure the mistake doesn’t happen again, Ann Brumbaugh, an attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registrations and Elections, told the board after not contesting the claim.

The board agreed to turn the matter over to the attorney general’s office, which could recommend a fine of $5,000 for each violation.

The complaint was filed with the secretary of state’s office in March 2022, unbeknownst to the board, Vice Chairman Janice Johnston said at Wednesday’s board meeting.
