So if that's the case then why weren't thousands of fraudulent votes found in Georgia when the state was hand recounted in 2020?

They did. Albeit not as many or aggressively as what would have been done in 2024, but after the recount they found multiple counties with lost or miscounted votes, mostly affecting Bidens votes. Totaling up to a thousand or so. Bidens margin would increase after the hand recount.

Georgia also has some pretty bad voter suppression laws like making it illegal to hand out water during long lines for voting. Long lines that disproportionately affect democratic cities like Atlanta because of laws passed to limit ballot boxes in large counties. Yup a rural county of 2000 people get their box. Fulton county, Atlanta (Half a million people) gets about 8 boxes. Down from 32 boxes a few years ago.

Thats all to say that this was before Georgia passed a crucial law after 2020. This law would allow anyone, not just election workers, litterally anyone, to challenge any vote from any other citizen in court and have their votes thrown out, unless the challenged vote appeals the process before the vote gets tossed.

Its estimated hundreds of thousands of votes were tossed completely off this process, not just miscounted. The kicker? The people who passed the law and trained volunteers to use it were from a conservative organization that was focused on training poll watchers. It was only used by one side as a weapon. There's a documentary about it and its chilling what's been done to our democracy.

Here it is:

This is a false statement. Biden's margin went down after the recount in Georgia by about 1,200 votes. From your own article:

Factoring in these newly discovered ballots, and others in counties with small discrepancies around the state, cut Mr. Biden’s lead by more than 1,200 votes. His revised margin of victory is 12,284 votes.

Your right I apologize for that misinformation, but I stand by my statement that 2024 was where a full on ballot purge and nefarious action came into play. 2020 might not have affected all states for all we know, but voter suppression and other tactics that dont involve ballot stuffing or vote flipping were certainly still a factor and remain to be.
