Fulton County failed to follow the legal requirement to compare the total number of votes recorded with the total number of people who cast ballots, according to Fulton County Board of Elections member Julie Adams and another person who requested anonymity. //

Except Fulton County never did any of this, according to Adams and another source familiar with the matter who requested anonymity. Nonetheless, FCBRE members were forced to rubber-stamp the results of the election even though the law to ensure the tallies were accurate was allegedly not followed. That’s because a judge ruled in October that election superintendents may not “refuse to certify or abstain from certifying election results under any circumstance.”
