Surveillance footage of ballot processing on election night in Atlanta is
fueling a false social media narrative of “suitcases filled with ballots”
hidden under a cloth-covered table and tallied without supervision, even as
top state officials confirm election workers followed standard procedure.
在亞特蘭大選舉之夜進行投票處理的監控鏡頭,正在煽動一種虛假的社交媒體敘述,稱“
裝滿投票箱的手提箱”隱藏在布蓋的桌子下,未經監督便被盤算,即使州高級官員確認選
舉工人遵循了標準程序。
The video showed regular ballot containers on wheels — not suitcases — and
both a state investigator and an independent monitor observed counting until
it was done for the night, finding no evidence of improper ballots, state and
county officials said on Friday.
該錄像顯示了在輪子上的常規投票箱,而不是行李箱,一位州和縣官員周五說,一名州調
查員和一名獨立監控員都在觀察計票,直到晚上計票結束,然而沒有發現不當選票的跡象
。
That hasn’t stopped President Donald Trump, his campaign, his lawyers and
his supporters from sharing the video with false fraud accusations in a spate
of Facebook and Twitter posts that have racked up millions of views in less
than 24 hours.
但這並沒有阻止唐納德·川普總統、他的政治活動、他的律師和他的支持者在一系列
Facebook和Twitter帖子中以虛假欺詐指控分享該視頻,這些帖子在不到24小時的時間內
就獲得了數百萬的觀看次數。
Here’s a look at the facts around this viral video:
以下是有關此被瘋傳視頻的一些事實:
CLAIM: Poll workers and partisan observers were told to leave Atlanta’s
State Farm Arena on election night, but four election workers stayed behind,
pulled suitcases full of ballots out from under a table, and scanned them
after hours without any supervision.
指控:選務人員和黨派觀察員被告知在選舉之夜離開亞特蘭大的州立農業球館 (State
Farm Arena),但四名選舉人員留在裡面,從桌子底下拿出裝滿選票的手提箱,在下班後
並且沒有任何監督的情況下對其進行了掃描。
THE FACTS: The video doesn’t show evidence of fraud, much less the “SMOKING
GUN” evidence that Trump’s legal team claims on social media.
事實:該影片沒有顯示欺詐的證據,更不用說川普法律團隊在社交媒體上聲稱的“罪證確
鑿”證據。
No one told observers they had to leave, and both an independent monitor and
an investigator oversaw the vote count, according to state and county
officials. Confusion arose when election workers thought they were done for
the night, but then were instructed to continue scanning ballots. But
investigators who reviewed the entire surveillance tape confirmed it showed “
normal ballot processing,” according to Gabriel Sterling, a top official in
the secretary of state’s office.
根據州和縣官員的說法,沒有人告訴觀察員他們必須離開,並且有獨立的監督員和調查員
來監督投票計數。 當選舉工作人員以為他們已經結束今晚的工作時,他們產生了困惑,
但隨後他們依照指示繼續掃描選票。 然而審查了整個監視錄像帶的調查人員證實,這顯
示出“正常的選票處理”,據國務卿辦公室高級官員加布里埃爾·斯特林(Gabriel
Sterling)說。
The video, which shows clips of surveillance footage from a room where
ballots were counted, began gaining traction online on Thursday after
volunteer Trump attorney Jackie Pick presented it for state senators during a
hearing at the state Capitol.
該影片顯示了計票期間的監視錄像片段,在川普志願律師傑基·皮克(Jackie Pick)在
州議會大廈舉行的聽證會上向州參議員展示後,該影片於週四開始在網上獲得關注
Pick claimed it showed a staff member telling partisan observers to leave the
facility for the night about 10:30 p.m. After observers were “cleared out,”
she said, four election workers stayed behind, pulled suitcases of ballots
out from underneath a table, and counted them for two hours with no witnesses
present.
皮克聲稱它顯示了一名工作人員告訴黨派觀察員在晚上大約10:30左右離開該設施。 她說
,在“清除觀察員”之後,四名選舉工作者留在裡面,從桌子底下拿出幾箱選票,數了兩
個小時沒有證人在場。
Fulton County Elections Director Richard Barron refuted those claims on
Friday, saying in a public meeting that no observers were ever told to leave
the facility.
富爾頓縣選舉主任理查德·巴倫(Richard Barron)週五駁斥了這些說法,在一次公開會
議上說,從未有觀察員被告知要離開該設施。
According to Barron, staff members who had been opening and flattening
ballots for scanning started leaving the facility as their duties concluded.
據巴倫說,一直在打開和弄平選票以利後續掃描工作進行的工作人員在工作結束時就開始
離開該設施。
Other election workers started to pack up, Sterling told The Associated Press
in an interview. They put prepared ballots back in boxes and away under a
table “to close out for the night.” Members of the media and Republican
observers began to leave the building too.
斯特林在接受採訪時告訴美聯社,其他選舉工作者也開始收拾行李。 他們將準備好的選
票放回盒子裡,放在桌子下面,“以便結束今晚的工作”。 媒體成員和共和黨觀察員也
開始離開大樓。
Then, the supervisor onsite got a call from Barron, who instructed the team
to continue scanning the ballots that had already been prepared. They pulled
the same boxes of ballots back out, and resumed scanning, Sterling said.
然後,現場監督員接到了巴倫的電話,巴倫指示團隊繼續掃描已經準備好的選票。 斯特
林說,他們撤回了同一箱選票,並繼續進行掃描。
“These aren’t magical ballots,” Sterling told the AP. “They didn’t show
up out of some other room.”
斯特林告訴美聯社:“這些不是神奇的選票。” “他們沒有出現在其他房間外面。”
Georgia law § 21-2-408 permits observers to stay in the room the whole time,
but doesn’t require it for counting to take place.
喬治亞州法律第21-2-408條允許觀察員一直呆在房間裡,但不要求計票時這些觀察員一定
要在現場。
After a short period when observers weren’t present, an independent state
election board monitor arrived to oversee the scanning at 11:52 p.m., Barron
said. A state investigator arrived at 12:15 a.m. Both individuals remained at
the facility until the count concluded for the night, he said.
巴倫說,在短暫的一段時間內沒有觀察員在場之後,一名獨立的州選舉委員會監察員於下
午11:52到達了現場來監督掃描選票的過程。 他說,一名州立調查員於凌晨12:15抵達。
兩個人一直待在該設施中,直到晚上的計票結束為止。
The Georgia secretary of state’s office said it was aware of the late-night
counting, and confirmed that both its investigator and an independent monitor
observed scanning “until it was halted for the night.”
喬治亞州國務卿辦公室表示,他們有意識到這是深夜的選票計算,並確認調查人員和獨立
監測員都有在場觀察掃描選票,“直到晚上停止。”
The office said it had launched an investigation into why partisan poll
observers left before scanning ended.
該辦公室表示,已經開始調查為何黨派觀察員在選票掃描結束之前就離開了。
The president’s team is “intentionally misleading the public about what
happened at State Farm Arena on election night,” Sterling tweeted Friday. “
They had the whole video too and ignored the truth.”
斯特林在週五發推文說,總統的團隊“故意誤導公眾選舉之夜在州立農業球館 (State
Farm Arena) 發生的事情”。 “他們也擁有整段影片,卻忽略了事實。”
