Georgia’s Secretary of State’s office said on Friday morning that it certified the results of the Nov. 3 election, saying that all 159 Georgia counties handed over their vote totals for each state and federal candidate. However, minutes later, the office corrected itself and said it “will certify the results,” but had not yet done so.

“Numbers don’t lie. As secretary of state, I believe the numbers that we have presented today are correct,” Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said at a press conference on Friday. “The numbers reflect the verdict of the people.”

Raffensperger’s office sent out a news release on Friday saying incorrectly saying that the results were certified. It then sent out a new press release saying the results will be certified.

According to the state’s election data, Democrat Joe Biden has a 12,284-vote lead over President Donald Trump. Trump has not conceded the election and has said that voter fraud and irregularities were present in Georgia as well as other key states.

The Epoch Times will not declare a winner of the presidential election until all legal challenges are completed. Ultimately, both the U.S. House and Senate—during the Joint Session of Congress in early January of next year—include procedures for challenges to even the Electoral College’s vote (pdf). Some Trump allies and even his legal team have suggested that the result of the election may come down to when both houses of Congress meet next year.

Trump’s campaign can seek a machine recount of the ballots in Georgia by Tuesday, Nov. 24.
