This is how it’s done. Certification of election results is not optional, and is a solemn responsibility whether you like the result or not. Partisan election denial needs to stop.
Yesterday, with little fanfare, I certified the election of Donald Trump for the State of Wisconsin. Did this make me happy? It assuredly did not. But the certification of an election isn’t discretionary. I don’t get to decide who won or lost. 1/

Across the nation and most of the world, no matter the challenges faced, elections officials will do what's needed to make sure the legally cast voices of all their voters will be heard.
Remember that ballot drop box in Clark County that was set fire? Here is how it was resolved and voters were protected:

488 damaged ballots were identified

345 of those voters had already request new ballots on their own

143 remaining ballots were mailed to voters

Clerks make it work

The end result of an election is not the media calling a contest, but a thorough canvass and review of the events of an election. Those gold seals and signatures are so much more than decoration - they are the proof of the hard work of thousands of poll workers, officials, and canvassers.
This morning @GaSecofState Raffensperger certified the results of GA’s 2024 General Election. Our office is proud of the work of our elections division & counties for running a great, fair, & accurate election. The presidential certification will now be transmitted to @GovKemp

So we had a “surprise” guest for the Ga SEB meeting today (well, surprise for me, as our ED had invited him but did not see fit to give me or the public any notice). It was Dr. Rick Richards, a medical doctor self-styled into a list maintenance “expert.” www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
