LordoftheMorons 11/12/20 8:15:18 PM #57:	Georgia's recount is actually an audit (basically) mandated by law Technically they can choose any race, but of course they'd choose the presidential one. Also because it's actually an audit they normally just choose a random sample of ballots to confirm that the winner is correct, but the closer the margin the more ballots you need to count for a fixed certainty of the sample winner matching the actual winner. Because they'd need, iirc, like a sixth of all ballots to be randomly selected, which would be costly, they decided they might as well just do a full recount. --- Congrats to azuarc, GotD2 Guru champ! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:947097598] in Politics C...
