It was reported on Twitter today by Washington Post reporter Amy Gardner that the Georgia’s Secretary of State has announced the state’s intention to conduct a hand recount of the votes for president.
The presidential race in Georgia, a state that typically votes GOP, was tight enough to trigger an automatic recount. There were some reports of voting irregularities in Fulton County, where a water main break put a hold on voting on election day.
The President has stated his confidence that a recount would lead to his taking the win in Georgia, and securing Georgia’s 16 electoral votes.
