An interesting bit of irony...
The Constitutional argument is that the Legislature, and not the Governor or Secretary of State, that is the sole authority in determining the “times, places and manner” of the elections.
But, that requirement has been roundly ignored in the run up to this election... with the Secretary of State not being at all shy in telling the counties what they can and cannot do, even when his choices conflict with the plain text of the law.
And, now, the argument is the opposite ? Now the Secretary of State is claiming he CAN’T be expected to tell the counties what to do in elections related matters... even when it is a simple matter of informing them of the emergent need to preserve evidence that a judge has directed must be preserved ?
The one thing that makes clear... is that either way the Secretary of State is going to lose the FUNDAMENTAL argument he’s picked with himself...
I don’t know the Georgia law well enough to know what it does direct in the plain text... in the instance... but, find it pretty hard to believe that it intends to disempower the SoS and prevent the SoS from acting in preserving evidence of fraud ?
Should prove interesting to see this one play out...
It would be nice if Trump had any lawyers involved that had experience in election law.
It doesn’t help that Lin Wood is a nutcase and a Qtard.
It’s all BULL!
As soon as the judge withdrew his order, the SoS issued an order to the counties to wipe the machines, which is as good as an admission that he LIED to the judge about his lack of authority.
We don’t need the 11th Circuit to confirm the obvious.
And SoS Raffensperger is not just a RINO, he is a Democrat mole!
