Cobb County Election officials handle ballots during a machine recount on Nov. 24, 2020, in Marietta, Ga.According to Donald Trump, 5,000 dead people voted in Georgia's 2020 presidential election. As is too often the case, the former president simply made up the tally and pretended it was true.False claims that there were thousands of ballots cast in the names of dead Georgia voters can now rest in peace.

Three vote counts showed that Trump lost by about 12,000 votes in Georgia.
And while it's not clear which party's candidates benefited from three of these four ballots, the Journal-Constitution pointed to Sharon Nelson, a 74-year-old widow who submitted an absentee ballot on behalf of her husband, who died in September 2020, just a couple of months before the election.
