To find a clue about what might have gone wrong with Georgia’s election last fall, look no further than voting machine No. 3 at the Winterville Train Depot outside Athens.

On machine No. 3, Republicans won every race. On each of the other six machines in that precinct, Democrats won every race.

The odds of an anomaly that large are less than 1 in 1 million, according to a statistician’s analysis in court documents. The strange results would disappear if votes for Democratic and Republican candidates were flipped on machine No. 3.

It just so happens that this occurred in Republican Brian Kemp’s home precinct, where he initially had a problem voting when his yellow voter access card didn’t work because a poll worker forgot to activate it. At the time, Kemp was secretary of state — Georgia’s top election official — and running for governor in a tight contest with Democrat Stacey Abrams.

the question is: WHO EXACTLY did this?

Kemp? Someone paid by Kemp? Someone associated with Kemp? A partisan Repuke shit-head? A foreign agent? A general troll? Who?

I testified in Judge Tottenberg's courtroom in ATL about my experience with a voting machine in Bleckley County changing my vote from Abrams to Kemp..
