Election officials in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania last week, which was in January 2023, recounted ballots from not the November 2022 election, but the November 2020 election in an effort to “expose” non-existent fraud or errors which cost Trump reelection, the New York Times reports.
Again, this was the 2020 election they recounted. 797 days after November 3rd, 2020, as the Times notes. Nearly 60,000 ballots over three days and an estimated 560 work hours to count them. Trump won the county by 40 percent, 41,462 votes to Biden’s 16,971. The recount found 15 fewer votes for Biden and seven fewer votes for Trump. Libertarian candidate Jo Jorgensen, the lady who once had to cancel a campaign event because she’d been bitten by a bat, gained four votes.
“This is just one piece of the puzzle. We’re not done,” said “Audit the Vote Pennsylvania” volunteer Karen DiSalvo, a lawyer who pushed for the recount. DiSalvo did not say what the rest of the “puzzle” is supposed to look like when Trump lost the state by over 80,000 votes in 2020.
