GEORGIA (VINnews) — Video footage from a Georgia polling site seems to show multiple suitcases full of ballots being pulled from under a table, after supervisors told poll workers to leave for the night.
The CCTV footage shows that after the poll workers were sent home, 4 people stayed behind to keep counting votes.
The footage seems to show that the same person who sent the poll workers home is the one who later pulled out the suitcases.
“What are these ballots doing there separate from all the other ballots? And why are they only counting them when the place is cleared out with no witnesses,” says the narrator of the video.
