The results of the last four presidential elections in Georgia reveal that the turnout for former Vice President Joe Biden, who holds less than a 11,000-vote lead with nearly 5 million cast, is highly anomalous.

This table shows the tallies of the presidential elections in Georgia between 2008 and 2020 (rounded to the nearest thousand):

2008

John McCain: 2,042,000

Barack Obama: 1,844,000

2012

Mitt Romney: 2,079,000

Barack Obama: 1,774,000

2016

Donald Trump: 2,089,000

Hillary Clinton: 1,878,000

2020

Donald Trump: 2,456,000

Joe Biden: 2,467,000

(as of Monday evening, Nov. 9)

Thus, Barack Obama lost the state by 198,000 and 305,000 votes, and Hillary Clinton by 211,000 votes. Yet both were historic candidates: the first African American and first female American from a major party.

While former Vice President Biden has been in national politics for nearly half a century, he was a senator from Delaware from 1973 through 2008, and he has no special resonance for Georgia's voters.

Most incredibly, he has received 589,000 more votes, or 31%, than Clinton garnered four years ago.

By contrast, this table shows the much smaller percentage increases in votes nationwide in the last two elections:

Total Votes 2020 Total Votes 2016
Biden 76,327,000 Clinton 65,854,000
Trump 71,430,000 Trump 62,985,000

Therefore, between 2016 and 2020, the total presidential vote increased by 18.92 million, or only 15%.

Similarly, the Democratic vote increased by 9.47 million, or only 14%.

The Republican vote increased by 8.45 million, or by only 13%.

In short, between 2016 and 2020, Joe Biden's mind-boggling percentage vote increase of 31% in Georgia is more than twice the percentage increase in the total vote, at 15%, the Democratic vote, at 14%, and Republican vote, at 13%.

However, Georgia's population has only increased approximately 300,000, from 10.3 million in 2016 to 10.6 million in 2020.

The next table shows the gigantic vote increases of Joe Biden compared to Hillary Clinton and President Trump's very small increases, in Fulton, De Kalb, Gwinnett and Cobb counties, the heavily populated Democratic-controlled counties in metro Atlanta:

Fulton County

2020

Biden: 379,0 95

Trump:136,716

2016

Clinton: 297,051

Trump: 117,783

Biden has jumped by 82,044 votes, or a huge 28%, while Trump has edged up 18,933 votes, or 16%.

De Kalb County

2020

Biden: 306,987

Trump: 58,170

2016

Clinton: 251,370

Trump: 51,468

Biden has garnered 55,617 more votes, or a healthy 22%, while Trump has gone up by 6,702 votes, or by 13%.

Gwinnett County

2020

Biden: 241,827

Trump: 166,413

2016

Clinton: 166,152

Trump: 146,989

Biden has improved by an enormous 75,675 votes, or 46%, while the president has eked out a 19,424 increase, or 13%.

Cobb County

2020

Biden: 221,746

Trump: 165,195

2016

Clinton: 169,121

Trump: 153,912

Biden has increased by a colossal 52,625 votes, or 31%, while Trump has seen a 11,283 bump, or 7%.

On Monday, Nov. 9, Gabriel Sterling, the Georgia official responsible for the election's integrity, conceded during a press conference that there was voter fraud, but not on a scale to reverse Biden's "10,353" edge.

However, the vote totals presented in this article, including Biden's 589,000, or 32%, increase over Hillary Clinton's total, and the 1,149,655 votes cast for the former vice president in the four, Democratic-dominated metro Atlanta counties, don't support the glibly premature assurances of the "Georgia Voting System Implementation Manager."
