More GOP stalling tactics.
Three members of the board are literal election deniers who refuse to accept that Biden won the 2020 election.
Then they changed the law again, this time to give Republicans four votes on the five-member board. The Republican Party was given a nominee, and it chose Janice Johnston. The GOP-run state Senate was given a nominee, and it chose Rick Jeffares. The GOP-run state House was given a nominee, and it chose Janelle King.
None of the three is willing to acknowledge that Joe Biden carried Georgia in the 2020 elections, and as a majority on the five-member board they show worrisome signs of trying to use that majority to throw the 2024 election into legal and political turmoil.
…
Earlier this month, the new three-member majority tried to call the election board into “emergency” session to cram through changes in state election regulations, at a time when they knew that the other two board members, including its chairman, were unable to attend. Those three board members were warned by the state attorney general’s office that no such emergency seemed to exist, and that the sudden meeting violated the state Open Meetings Act. They were told that any action they took would not be considered legitimate.
They met, and took action, anyway.
Expect fun times in GA this November…
We need to win without Georgia.
Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, you know what to do.
I’m really hoping that now that Biden finally did the right thing and bowed out we’ll see an absolutely landslide win for Kamala to the point where Republicans would need to overturn the results in multiple states to even give Trump a slim win. It’s actually looking Iike that might be possible based on the polling and voter registration numbers. It’s looking a lot like first term Obama turn out.
It’s the duty of the board to provide some oversight, in a fair way, in a reasonable way.”
I believe that process is called “counting the votes”
