Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb and Gwinnett counties are refusing to allow Republican poll watchers in to observe the process, according to the Republican National Committee. “This is a blatant violation of Georgia law . . . which states ‘all drop boxes shall be closed when the advance voting period ends,’” the Georgia Republican Party said in a statement on Friday. “To make matters worse, the four election office locations are situated...

With polls showing Vice President Harris and former President Trump locked in a dead heat as the 2024 race for the White House enters its final hours, the fate of the nation will turn on seven battleground states. These swing states have a combined 93 electoral votes. Some are longtime pillars of the so-called Democratic “blue wall,” which Trump demolished in 2016. Others are staples of the Republican coalition President Biden clawed away in 2020. With no pandemic, there will be fewer mail-in ballots this year — which could yield a winner much sooner than in 2020, when the race...

Former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Friday on CNN’s “News Central” that “voter suppression activity” was occurring in Georgia despite record turnout. Co-anchor Kate Bolduan asked, “Early voting has been just breaking records from day one in Georgia. You have been working on improving voter turnout in Georgia for years. What do you think is driving this surge in early voting this time?” Abrams said, “Well, while we are excited about who’s showing up we have to understand that turnout does not mean there is not voter suppression activity. A lot of those voters in 2020 were able...

Former President Donald Trump is attracting massive crowds as the election barrels down and he travels coast to coast. Trump has taken no days off, traveling across the country and sometimes holding multiple events a day. He’ll be in more states. On Thursday, he’s literally traveling all over the country, hitting every single battleground state — Pennsylvania, Georgia, again, he’ll be in North Carolina, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin — all over the next seven days,” Trump campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said during an appearance on Breitbart News Daily earlier this week. “So it’s a busy schedule. We’ve been...

We now have proof that the Georgia State Board of Elections (SBOE) creates illegal cloned voter IDs in the thousands, capable of being activated to create certifiable voters in an election fraud scheme consistent with embedding cryptographic codes in SBOE voter registration databases. As reported on our website, GodsFiveStones.com, Andrew Paquette, Ph.D., discovered these algorithms in New York, Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Arizona and will report on New Jersey, Texas, and Hawaii. A group known as theGANerds_Real on “X” (“The Georgia Nerds”), headed by Kim P. Brooks, has published a series of podcasts on Rumble documenting how the Georgia SBOE...

Carl Gilliard, D-Savannah, joined an emergency Zoom call with about 70 other Black Georgia faith leaders Monday night to discussj their concerns about the state’s latest early voting figures. Most prominent leaders of the state’s Black faith community have thrown their support behind Vice President Kamala Harris in her White House race against former President Donald Trump. The latest early voting data has given them cause for concern about Harris’ chances of winning Georgia’s 16 crucial electoral college votes in a battleground...

President Biden on Tuesday called for the government in the country of Georgia to investigate all election irregularities, holding back recognition of the claimed victory by the ruling party Georgian Dream following the parliamentary contest on Saturday. Biden cited international and local observers’ assessments that elections in Georgia were not free, nor fair, and said he is “deeply alarmed” at the government’s democratic backsliding. “The United States has long stood with the Georgian people and supported the country of Georgia’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, and Euro-Atlantic aspirations,” the president said in a statement. “That is why I have been deeply alarmed...

Republican voters appear to be running up big leads during the opening stages of early voting in at least four of seven battleground states, in some cases not only chipping into mail-in ballot advantages that Democrats have built over the past few election cycles but surpassing them. Overall, nearly 33 million Americans nationwide had already cast ballots in the Nov. 5 election as of Friday, with at least 15 million doing so in the 36 states where early voting is underway and 17.89 million mailing in their ballots, according to the University of Florida’s U.S. Election Lab… … … While...

Why is Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger quietly raising $5 million to “identify local election officials” who might challenge election results.. Georgia, the site of massive election misinformation, questionable results, incomplete audits and a mysterious come-from-behind razor-thin win by Joe Biden in 2020, appears to be at it again. Or perhaps we should say Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is at it again. Kylie Jane Kremer brought the matter to our attention through a series of posts on X. As Kremer notes, “Raffensperger sent an email, in a private capacity, that went to a list of trial lawyers...

A Republican member of the Fulton County Board of Elections has filed an appeal after a judge ordered that all election board members must certify election results by the deadline set by law. Julie Adams joined the Fulton County Board of Election in February and has previously filed a lawsuit against the county, the board, and the county’s election director saying she has been “prevented from performing her statutory duties as a BRE member as she has been denied, and continues to be denied, access to essential election materials and processes by which elections in Fulton County are conducted.” Now,...

Governor Burt Jones in Zebulon, Georgia on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, at 3:00PM EDT. While Kamala Harris has a troubling history of affiliating with individuals and organizations linked to antisemitism, President Trump has stood firmly for religious freedom and the protection of all religions. On Holocaust Remembrance Day, Harris chose to attend the inauguration of Honduras' President Xiomara Castro and Vice President Salvador Nasralla, who has become notorious for his antisemitic remarks. Harris has also been connected...

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's last poll before election day takes Georgia out of the "swing state" category and puts it firmly in Trump's column. Ever since shenanigans in Fulton County in 2020 led to a 0.24-point Biden victory in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, the left and the media have insisted on calling Georgia a swing state, a claim that ranks right up there with claiming Texas is going to elect a Democrat senator this year. State of Play As of Tuesday, FiveThirtyEight.com gives Trump a 2.0-point lead, and RealClearPoliitcis shows a 2.5-point lead. Trump has led in every poll...

The Georgia Supreme Court has denied the Republican Party's request to immediately reinstate new ballot rules passed by the State Election Board (SEB) last month. The Peach State’s highest court said it will hear the Republican National Committee’s (RNC's) request for an expedited appeal late last week after Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas A. Cox, Jr. ruled the measures were "illegal, unconstitutional, and void." The one-page decision by the state Supreme Court released on Tuesday afternoon indicates that ruling will remain in place through Election Day. It was unanimously backed by all judges on the court.
