The Republican National Committee (RNC), the Georgia Republican Party, and Fulton County Republican Party are suing the Fulton County Department of Registration & Elections office for failing to hire a sufficient number of Republican election workers. Specifically, as of yesterday, county Election Director Nadine Williams has only hired 15 Republicans out of 804 total election workers.
Commenting on the lawsuit, RNC Chairman Michael Whatley stated: “Fulton County has failed to comply with the law and put a partisan thumb on the scale, excluding fully qualified Republican poll workers from working the 2024 general election. This is our country’s most important election, and Fulton County must follow the law – plain and simple. We are suing to promote the confidence, fairness, and integrity in our elections that Georgians deserve.”
An RNC media release further says:
Georgia law requires that election officials hire poll workers from lists submitted by political parties. This law helps ensure transparency in the administration of the election.
Early voting is right around the corner for Georgia. It is totally unacceptable to violate state law and sow public distrust this close to the presidential election.
We filed this lawsuit to protect the Republican Party’s right to partisan balance in poll worker hiring in Fulton County.
The RNC is dedicated to confronting election interference from the Left, fighting for fair elections.
As the is written, elections director Williams (a Democrat) has not responded except to says the qualified poll workers have been put “on reserve.”
The GOP plaintiffs want the court to issue a writ of mandamus compelling Williams to appoint all qualified republicans or provide a real reason for not hiring them. Read the lawsuit document filed in Fulton County Superior Court HERE.
Written response, “They’re Republicans.
Cour response, “That’s reasonable. Case closed.”
Is this to be decided by a judge? If so, what judge?
Puh-leeze.
My husband and I lived in Fulton Co during BOs election. We have been registered Republicans for years and someone stole my husband’s and MIL’s votes and voted for BO. I called to complain but NOTHING was done. The next election, my MIL’s vote was stolen again to vote D.
Expect nothing and you won’t be disappointed.
Have them order an absentee ballot and then bring it in to vote on election day. If the thieves running the election say they have already voted, file a lawsuit because you have the physical proof that they did NOT.
This is what is being recommended for any place where this kind of crap has been happening.
If they claim the vote has already happened they should have to have some kind of documentation such as a signature. Could be that signature matching could find the same handwriting on a bunch of STOLEN votes. So there is a possibility that you could file a civil lawsuit if the system won’t file criminal charges, and the person/people doing this could be sued civilly - which, if it succeeded, would be reason for criminal charges to also be filed.
We have to fight back. These people are stealing something valuable from you and they need to be put in jail for it.
My mother-in-law is in a care center in the Omaha area, and I want to see if there’s any way to find out if somebody has registered her to vote, with the intent to vote “for” her.
This ought to be a slam-dunk, but won’t be.
To follow up how sorry Fulton Co is, my husband works in Atlanta. A few weeks ago, a coworker left work at night and was at a stoplight. A black SUV was next to him and when the light turned green and he started driving, he heard ‘thud thud thud’. When he got home, there were three bullet holes in the frame of the back driver window closest to the driver. He called the police and the dispatcher asked him, ‘did you cut him off’?
He was told there were no cameras there and since he didn’t get a license plate, nothing could be done.
Third world.
And then send the officials who broke the law to jail.
Voting goes from being a right, a privilege, a responsibility...to now include a risk.
Welcome to "democracy"...post 2020
(though I do believe the shenanigans began in 2018).
