GA Election Officials Take More Steps To Cheat For Trump
The Georgia State Election Board passed a new rule on Tuesday that could delay election certification and give board members more discretion to investigate elections. You see where this is going, right? Via Democracy Docket:
The rule states that the board can only certify an election “after reasonable inquiry that the tabulation and canvassing of the election are complete and accurate and that the results are a true and accurate accounting of all votes cast in that election.”
The three Republican members of the board who voted in support of this rule — Janice Johnston, Rick Jeffares, and Janelle King — were called out by name by former President Donald Trump at a Saturday rally and thanked for their actions. He called them “pit bulls fighting for honesty, transparency, and victory.”
This is far from the first controversial rule this board has passed. Last month, the board held an illegal meeting to review new controversial election policies. But then nonpartisan watchdog group American Oversight sued them for doing so, which caused the board to withdraw the rules.
During Tuesday’s meeting, Johnston argued that the board can’t, in good conscience, certify an election unless they are certain that it was conducted fairly and accurately.
