Podcast host Joe Rogan and comedian Shane Gillis discussed irregularities tied to Georgia’s 2020 election during a recent exchange, focusing on documented failures by election officials in Fulton County to follow state-mandated certification procedures for early voting ballots.

Rogan cited findings and complaints that Georgia election officials acknowledged violations of state law involving roughly 315,000 early vote ballots cast in Fulton County.

According to Rogan, the issue centered on missing Poll Worker signatures on required tabulator tapes, a step mandated under Georgia election procedure statutes.

“Georgia officials and complaints agree that failing to obtain required Poll Worker signatures on the tabulator tapes for roughly 315,000 early vote ballots in Fulton County was a violation of Georgia election procedure law, ie, it was not done in compliance with the statute,” Rogan said.

Rogan emphasized that the failure did not automatically suggest wrongdoing by individual voters, but he said it did raise questions about whether the votes were legally certified.

“That does not automatically mean individual voters did anything wrong or that their ballots are criminally illegal, but it does mean the county certification process for those votes did not follow the state legal requirements,” Rogan said.

“So those are not supposed to have been counted. Is that what they’re saying, because it didn’t follow the requirements. That’s that’s what they’re saying.”

Rogan continued by referencing the specific procedures election workers are required to follow at polling locations, including the handling of tabulator tapes.

“So it said, scroll back up again. So I get here. So it says poll workers must also print and sign zero tapes at the start of voting to show machines begin at zero, and these signed tapes serve as the official certification that reported totals from the scanner are authentic,” Rogan said.

“That’s what they require. So they require people to do that. So maybe someone didn’t do that, what they were required. That’s a possibility.”

Gillis responded by pointing out the scope of the issue within Fulton County’s advanced voting locations.

“I think 36 did,” Gillis said.

Rogan followed up by clarifying the number of affected precincts and raising questions about the political makeup of those locations.

“36 of 37 advanced voting precincts in Fulton County had failed to sign the tabulation tapes, including that the county violated official election record document processes required by statute, the ones the voting precincts put this in that failed to sign the tabulation tapes,” Rogan said. “Were they predominantly Republican or Democrat?”

Gillis suggested the answer was apparent based on the county’s political profile.

“Just Google Fulton County click images,” Gillis said.

Rogan pressed further.

“I think, you know, what do you think?” Rogan asked.

Gillis replied, “I don’t know. Well, I mean, if the Republicans are complaining about it, it’s obviously a Democrat county.”

Rogan agreed.

“Right. For Sure,” Rogan said.

Rogan then summarized publicly available information about Fulton County’s voting patterns and how they relate to the unsigned tabulator tapes.

“Specific 36 to 37 advanced voting locations with unsigned tapes are not publicly broken out by party, but Fulton County as a whole is strongly democratic, and its advanced early vote totals in 2020 were overwhelmingly democratic,” Rogan said.

“In other words, those affected advanced voting sites would be expected to be predominantly Democrat in the results, not Republican.”

He added a sarcastic observation about the concentration of the issue.

“Weird, that 36 out of 37 that have unsigned tapes are strong democratic, and that there’s 315,000 votes that aren’t supposed to be there,” Rogan said. “They didn’t sign for the but it’s okay. Don’t worry about it. We just forgot to tally.”

Gillis reacted bluntly.

“F**k it,” Gillis said.

Rogan closed the exchange with another sarcastic remark about the situation.

“We were so busy making sure we saved democracy that we forgot to tally,” Rogan said.
