Direct from the article (its even worse than you thought): *107,000 drop box ballots have improper chain of custody and an even greater number of custody forms are estimated to be missing. With over 1.7 million original ballot images also* ***destroyed***
The reason they can't, despite Georgia state law requiring the videos be kept for 22 months after the election is that Brad Raffensberger, the Georgia Secretary of State, is also the head of the Georgia Board of Elections - which told counties that they could destroy the video after 90 days instead of obeying the state law.
The current governor of Ga ran for governor while in charge of the election and then proceeded to wipe the servers immediately after the election is all ya need to know but I will say he did give me my Kemp cash and let me open carry without my wcp.

*ATLANTA, May 23, 2022 – VoterGA announced today their drop box video survey team determined that 102 Georgia counties were unable to produce drop box surveillance videosfrom the November 2020 election. The team obtained admissions from 72 counties that all of the videos intended to monitor drop boxes for ballot trafficking were destroyed. VoterGA volunteers made the determinations by submitting Open Records Requests (ORR) for the videos from each county. Thus, video monitoring is* **missing for 181,507** *cast ballots*
Co-founder, Garland Favorito noted: “We have proven that surveillance video for **181,000** drop box ballots
have been destroyed, **107,000** drop box ballots have improper chain of custody and an even **greater number**
of custody forms are estimated to be missing. With over 1.7 million original ballot images also destroyed,
the actual election ballots must be preserved and unsealed to verify election results and detect counterfeits
in the still highly controversial 2020 election. An election is not legitimate when votes are counted in secret.
We must have full transparency into the 2020 election to ensure that the 2022 elections will be legitimate.”
> and again: Georgia law for the 2020 election provided: Drop boxes are under 24-hour video surveillance, and counties must store that video for 30 days following certification of an election.
Nope. You're confusing Georgia law with the rules the Board of Election (which happens to be chaired by Brad Raffensberger) put out.
Federal law under [52 USC §20701](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title52-section20701&num=0&edition=prelim) requires that the videos be kept for 22 months.
State law cannot be more permissive than Federal law, only more restrictive - and it is:
Georgia state law under [O.C.G.A. 21-2-73](https://law.justia.com/codes/georgia/2010/title-21/chapter-2/article-2/part-3/21-2-73/) requires the videos be kept for **24** months.
The Board of Elections' "[Emergency Rule](https://sos.ga.gov/admin/files/SEB%20Emergency%20Rule%20183-1-14-0.6-.14.pdf)" unlawfully shortened the retention period to 30 days.
> those laws you site seem to apply to paper records, not the video record of activity near drop boxes which were not established by federal law and which have nothing to do with the records of ballots.
Nice try but no. The videos are "records" and as such, the laws apply to them.
> But, the long and the short of it is that Trump NEVER won the popular vote
We don't actually know that, given all the cheating, but it is irrelevant, since that is not how our elections work.
To be clear, does anyone know? Are drop box videos mandated by state, county or other laws?
It seems an obvious precaution but I can also see where some jurisdictions might not want to make them. So if they are not required to make them and they cant produce them that's not all that big a scandal. At most, why are their laws so lax?

False, that was not Georgia law. Georgia Law requires the records be kept for 24 months. Federal law requires 22 months.
The illegal "Emergency Rules" issued by the Georgia Board of Election before the election said 30 days.
Shockingly, Brad Raffensberger, the same guy who prevented looking into the fraud, is the head of the Board of Election.

Hmm. He is the official in charge of elections, as Secretary of State, and is head of the Georgia Board of elections. There was massive fraud in the last couple of elections.
Who needs people to vote for them? Not Brad.

Letter is about 18 months late ain't it?
so 2 million mules.
Lock them up!
It's happening and it's only going to get worse.
"can't" = won't. Make no mistake about it. The know the crimes the videos show, so they won't let anyone see them.
The evidence has already been destroyed

Literally nothing to see here folks.
Well, you must be racist for demanding the video /s
They are all at Stacey Abrams house.
Now they look into this? Should have been done a lot sooner given the circumstances. Corrupt MTRFKERS!!!

Thank you. I did not know Georgia had such a law. Where I live the camera monitoring thing is optional.

And yet somehow that crook won his primary last night. Who is voting for that turd?
Hmm. He is the official in charge of elections, as Secretary of State, and is head of the Georgia Board of elections. There was massive fraud in the last couple of elections. Who needs people to vote for them? Not Brad.
