It's the Brian Larry Show on WNYC. Good morning again, everyone. And happy Tuesday, Election Day, is now six weeks away. When we know the results of the presidential election is anyone's

guess. And it became even more uncertain on Friday when the Georgia State Election Board passed a

requirement for all the ballots in the state to be counted by hand. This is purportedly to prevent

election fraud, but it's a problem that no evidence says exists to any

meaningful degree in Georgia. The vote on the five-member board was three to two, and by way of

background, I want to play a couple of clips. Donald Trump held a rally in Georgia last month,

at which he praised these three members of the Georgia State Elections Board by name and said they were helping him achieve victory.

And even as they hold these jobs, which you might think are supposed to protect the voting rights of all people, all people in Georgia in this case, regardless of their politics,

these three election board officials even attended this August 4th Trump rally. In this clip, Trump actually

thanks these election officials by name. The video shows him pointing to them in the crowd.

I don't know if you've heard, but the Georgia State Election Board is in a very positive way.

This is a very positive thing, Marjorie. They're on fire. They're doing a

great job. Three members, Janice Johnson, Rick Jeffries, and Janelle King. Three people

are all pit bulls fighting for honesty, transparency, and victory. They're fighting.

Are they here? Where are they? Where are they? Thank you. What a job. Thank you.

So that from the August 4th, Trump rally in Georgia. Those three members of the state elections board

voted in the hand-counting rule last Friday, voted in favor. The vote was three to two.

By contrast, voting no, was the chair of the board, himself a Republican, appointed by Republican

Governor Brian Kemp. His name is John Furvier. Here he is on

Atlanta's Channel 4 TV. My position is a nonpartisan position, so I don't participate in any

partisan activities at all as a board member. The other board members, you know, whether they

participate in something that's up to them. John Furvier, after that Trump rally that we played a clip of.
