Instead, as confirmed in data posted by the non-partisan <a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Election_results,_2020:_Analysis_of_rejected_ballots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ballotpedia<\/a>, Georgia opened the floodgates to mail-in ballots in 2020 without maintaining normal verification and rejection rates.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ballotpedia\u2019s table of mail-in or absentee ballots in the last three elections show that Georgia increased its allowance of mail ballots by a record 1.1 million (from 213,000 in 2016 to 1,316,000 in 2020). At the same time, its <a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Election_results,_2020:_Analysis_of_rejected_ballots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rejection rate<\/a> fell from 6.4% in 2016 to a rock-bottom 0.4% in 2020.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Those mail-in \u201cvotes\u201d were overwhelmingly for Biden, without meaningful verification of their authenticity. Every percentage point reduction in the rejection rate likely meant 11,000 more votes for Biden in a state he reportedly won by only that slim margin.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Election_results,_2020:_Analysis_of_rejected_ballots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ballotpedia charts all the states<\/a> by the change in rejection rates of their mail-in or absentee ballots from 2016 to 2020, and Georgia ranks as the very worst in the country by that crucial measure. Georgia decreased its ballot rejections by 30 times the national average reduction in ballot rejections between the last two presidential elections.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Yet not only do prosecutors in Georgia fail to acknowledge this disparity, they reportedly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phyllisschlafly.com\/featured-top\/court-of-appeals-should-halt-anti-gop-prosecutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">plan to indict the Trump advisers<\/a> and ultimately Trump for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/2020-election\/2020\/11\/16\/fact-check-trump-is-right-ap-wrong-about-georgia-signature-matching\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">daring to criticize the malfeasance of Georgia election officials in allowing questionable ballots<\/a> to be counted. A worse political misuse of prosecutorial power is difficult to imagine, and on Monday the Fulton County prosecutors even filed court papers to compel testimony by a police chaplain from the small town of Montgomery, Illinois.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Texas courts have already stood up against the Fulton County travesty by properly rejecting Georgia\u2019s attempt to haul Texans before the Democrat-stacked process in an Atlanta courtroom. A Texas appellate court <a href=\"https:\/\/www.courthousenews.com\/texas-attorney-wins-fight-against-subpoena-in-trump-election-interference-probe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expressed<\/a> its <a href=\"https:\/\/search.txcourts.gov\/SearchMedia.aspx?MediaVersionID=c3e85d2b-d043-41f2-aa32-e513f278b72b&#038;coa=coscca&#038;DT=OTHER&#038;MediaID=5c3095bc-ddc0-401a-a4fb-530504976b78\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">strong<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/search.txcourts.gov\/SearchMedia.aspx?MediaVersionID=93140591-97bb-4648-b65c-7156663e45af&#038;coa=coscca&#038;DT=OTHER&#038;MediaID=faf3735a-8324-453e-b0b5-6acf098ea609\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">doubts<\/a> that the Fulton County proceeding is even legitimate, as it ruled that a Texas resident can ignore Fulton County\u2019s subpoena.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ballotpedia data show that the rejection rate of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/uk-factcheck-georgia-rejected-ballots-fo\/fact-check-georgia-rejected-ballots-did-not-go-from-4-to-almost-zero-in-2020-idUSKBN2832CM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">only 0.15% in Georgia<\/a> of invalid signatures on mail-in\/absentee ballots in 2020 was far less than in many other states, and comparable to the national average rejection rate for ballots failing to contain any signature at all.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For nearly two years, Fulton County prosecutors have been unable to find any real crime committed by any Trump supporter or Republican in criticizing Georgia\u2019s improper election procedures. Now in the Eleventh Circuit, Democrats are pleading a belated urgency as they demand immediate testimony by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In Nevada on Saturday, campaigning for Republican Adam Laxalt for U.S. Senate, while polling indicates a GOP recapture of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As many as 20\u00a0top Republicans have reportedly been targeted by Democrat prosecutors in Fulton County, Georgia, a county that voted 3-to-1 for Biden in the last election, according to a recent report in the New York Times.
