Five years after the fact—long after it could be dismissed as “dangerous misinformation”—Fulton County has now admitted something that would have detonated the 2020 election narrative if it had been acknowledged when it actually mattered.
During a December 9 hearing before the Georgia State Election Board, Fulton County officials conceded that approximately 315,000 early votes from the 2020 election were illegally certified and counted, despite missing mandatory poll-worker signatures required by Georgia law.
Let that number sink in.
Joe Biden “won” Georgia by 11,779 votes in 2020. If 315,000 votes were uncertified, then the results for the entire state were invalid—period.
ELECTION INTEGRITY: Fulton County told the Georgia State Election Board it does not dispute 315,000 early votes in 2020 were illegally counted giving Biden the win.

The admission came in response to a challenge filed by election integrity activist David Cross, who alleged that Fulton County violated Georgia statute by counting early votes without signed tabulation tapes. And Fulton County didn’t deny it.
Ann Brumbaugh, attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections, told the board that while she had “not seen the tapes,” the county does “not dispute that the tapes were not signed.” She added: “It was a violation of the rule… we don’t dispute the allegation from the 2020 election.”
That alone should have ended the debate.
Fulton County admits the wrongdoing now, five years too late for it to matter. But if you bring it up when it matters, they indict you and threaten life in prison to shut you up. https://t.co/FwJvMYpkF7

A subsequent investigation by the Georgia Secretary of State’s office substantiated the violations, finding that 36 of 37 advanced voting precincts in Fulton County failed to sign tabulation tapes as required by statute. The investigation also found that officials at 32 polling sites failed to verify required “zero tapes,” which are meant to prove voting machines started with zero votes at the beginning of each day.
Georgia law requires ballot scanners to print three closing tapes per day, all of which must be signed by poll workers or accompanied by a documented refusal. Those signed tapes are not optional paperwork—they are the legal certification.
“These signed tapes are the sole legal certification that the reported totals are authentic,” Cross told the board. “Fulton County produced zero signed tabulator tapes in early voting.”
Through open records requests costing $15,800, Cross obtained 77 megabytes of election records, including 134 tabulator tapes representing 315,000 votes—every single one missing signatures.
Well well well…
Here’s the latest from STOLEN Georgia.

Fulton County admits certifying 315,000 fraudulent early votes without poll worker signatures.
Crime of the century.
People should already be in prison.

Cross also identified additional irregularities, including polling locations operating at “impossibly late hours, like 2:09 a.m.”, and duplicated scanner serial numbers, where memory devices were removed from one scanner and printed on another.
“These are not clerical errors,” Cross said. “They are catastrophic breaks in chain of custody and certification.”
Despite this, Fulton County still certified the results, and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger accepted and folded those uncertified numbers into Georgia’s official total without questioning them, according to Cross.
“This is not partisan. This is statutory. This is the law,” Cross said. “When the law demands three signatures on tabulator tapes and the county fails to follow the rules, those 315,000 votes are, by definition, uncertified.”
Cross is now seeking sanctions, public acknowledgment of the violations, and decertification of Fulton County’s 2020 advanced voting results—not to change who sits in the White House, but to force accountability and permanently document what happened.
And that’s the final insult: Fulton County admits it now, five years too late. But when Americans raised these same issues in real time, they were mocked, censored, indicted, and threatened with prison.
The truth didn’t change. The timing did.
