This doesn’t sound suspicious at all. According to Terry McAuliffe’s campaign, the results from Fairfax County might be delayed because some early votes need to be rescanned.
NEW INFO: @TerryMcAuliffe’s campaign says a portion of the early votes in Fairfax County need to be rescanned and there is no set timeline for that yet. His staff says that could delay the results.

Why are we hearing this from the McAuliffe campaign and not from Fairfax County elections officials? https://t.co/loRtsfGBg3

You can't make this crap up.
Fairfax County is rescanning ballots.— Kambree (@KamVTV) November 2, 2021
Breaking: Fairfax County, Virginia has announced that they are *RE-SCANNING* ballots and will be releasing their vote totals later tonight.

They really cannot be serious with this crap.

To be shocked at this point is insulting.

Note that not only is Fairfax County not reporting vote tallies, it’s also not reporting how many total ballots it received. Convenient!

Was there really any doubt this would happen?

Not suspicious at all. How long until the “pipe” bursts ending counting for the night?

Ballot scanners are done at the time of vote casting, why would they need to be scanned again?

"rescanned"
You mean scanned multiple times to bump up those numbers before fighting an audit.
Gotcha.

WTH? Why are we getting this incredibly sketchy news from McAuliffe's campaign. Unsavory.

No one is ever going to trust an election ever again.

Did you ask why they need to be rescanned?
— CS (@WPChris25) November 3, 2021
We’ll be interested to hear the answer to that one.
