Fulton County GOP Chair Candidate Troubled by Errors and Omissions in Ongoing Election Conflict

After two months of drama, the election for a new Fulton County Republican Party (FCRP) chair remains on hold, but a resolution is pending.

The outcome will likely determine whether the FCRP sticks to its establishment roots or veers in a direction more friendly to former U.S. President Donald Trump.

Georgia Republican Party Executive Director Stewart Bragg told The Georgia Star News Thursday that his staff members have obtained the original registration list from the Fulton County Republican Convention.

“We have submitted that list to both candidates,” Bragg said in an email.

“Once both candidates have agreed to the list, Chairman David Shafer will call the election in accordance with [the] decision of the State Committee.”

FCRP members convened in April to elect a new chair. They had to pick between Trey Kelly — the incumbent who is an establishment Republican — or Susan Opraseuth. Opraseuth strongly supports Trump. But Fulton County Republicans tussled over who ultimately prevailed because of voting methods that many people questioned. Kelly won that first vote. Several party members demanded a second and more transparent vote — which Opraseuth won. Kelly challenged the second vote.

An Opraseuth supporter said this month that the candidate does not have a database of 330 delegates she needs as she campaigns to replace Kelly — even though she’s entitled to have it. The database contains the phone numbers and email addresses for delegates who will vote to elect a new chair.

I think there is more legit efforts to run an election in Iraq, than in Georgia (sad to admit that).

Exposing and Chipping away at corruption and lack of fairness (withholding the list) in even the smallest of elections is how we can start to turn this ship around. The corruption and entitlement of these politicians did not happen all overnight. But, they love their power snd are not letting go of it easily. Every win is important.

Fulton County GOP Chair Candidate Troubled by Errors

Look, it's one thing to be troubled, but it's another thing to be concerned. To be concerned is far, far more serious in the world of GOP'ers.

“This is the tiddly winks election (see below story).”

This sounds like the election Marjorie Taylor Green described on Steve Bannon’s War Room a few months back.

Fascinating story, showing that the cheating in Georgia elections is not limited to the Democrat party. This is RINOs blatantly stealing an election from MAGA Republicans.

Incredible.

Hopefully, we have learned the focus should be here and not there.
