'Teknikere fra Dominion er sendt for at løse problemet,' sagde embedsmænd i Fulton County i en erklæring rapporteret af WXIA-TV, et lokalt NBC-datterselskab. 'Georgiens udenrigsministeriums kontor er også blevet advaret om problemet og er opmærksom på bestræbelser på at løse problemet.'
Fulton County embedsmænd fortalte afsætningsmuligheden, at et nyligt købt Dominion-mobilservernedbrud var skylden. Washington Examiner nåede ud til Dominion for kommentar.
Kommentar: Delvist oversat af Sott.net fra Of course: Georgia recount in Fulton County delayed by Dominion 'server crash'
Dominion, a leading voting machine company whose products are used in several states, has been the focus of voter fraud claims by Trump and his allies. Sidney Powell, an attorney from whom the Trump legal team distanced themselves in recent days, has a federal lawsuit alleging widespread voter fraud in Georgia, and she claims that state officials, including Gov. Brian Kemp, were bribed to be part of a conspiracy with Dominion to tilt the election in President-elect Joe Biden's favor.
Dominion has vociferously denied "false assertions" about it being involved in such a scheme, and Kemp denounced Powell's claims as "absolutely absurd."
Officials in Fulton, Georgia's most populous county that includes Atlanta, indicated that most of the ballot-counting in the recount is complete and that it will resume on Monday morning. The recount must wrap up in counties all across the state by Wednesday.
The news from Fulton County followed a tumultuous day in court. A federal judge ordered all voting machines in Georgia not to be wiped until further notice in a lawsuit seeking an inspection of the hardware, but hours later reversed the order, noting that the machines at the center of the request are in the possession of county election officials. The U.S. district judge, Timothy Batten, issued another order late in the evening to say officials are temporarily restrained from allowing the alteration, destruction, or erasure of software or data from Dominion machines in three Georgia counties — Cobb, Gwinnett, and Cherokee.
Comment: But was the delay in reversing the order still enough time to cover up the steal? Sidney Powell was incensed that the FBI didn't impound all the voting machines in dispute right off the bat.
Georgia already certified the election results on Nov. 20 after an initial recount conducted by hand showed Biden winning the state's 16 Electoral College votes by about 13,000 votes. The Electoral College meets in mid-December.

But everything's on the up and up right?
