By Cristina Cabrera|November 20, 2020 7:37 a.m.
President Donald Trumps campaign is having a fit after a manual recount of Georgias election results confirmed on Thursday night President-elect Joe Bidens stunning victory in the Peach State.
Jenna Ellis, one of the campaigns legal advisors, said in a statement that they will continue to demand an honest recount, parroting Trumplands baseless accusation that the election was mired in fraud.

Biden defeated President Donald Trump by a margin of 12,284 votes, the recount showed.

OP
It was a recount, Jenna, not a discount where votes are taken away. Get over it.

I'm surprised he hasn't started a class action lawsuit against all of those voters.

To Trump and Jenna Ellis, that means count and count again until Trump's votes outnumber Joe Biden's.
