One of the many plots the administrative state and left have to frame and persecute President Donald J. Trump is over a phone call made during the aftermath of the highly curious 2020 elections, at a time where it was obvious that powerful politicians and their allies in the media were colluding to set a narrative about what happened- that conflicted with people’s ability to apply logic. But the administrative-‘deepstate’ persisted in 2020, nonetheless refusing transparency for the American people and boxing Trump into corners to take their abuse for asking questions that needed to be asked. Trump was almost...

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s own court filings against President Trump, Sen. Lindsey Graham, and other Republicans reveal her investigation is a sham because its ‘central focus’ rests on a lie.A Georgia county prosecutor falsely claimed in a federal court filing last week that Donald Trump requested the Georgia secretary of state “‘find 11,780 votes’ in the former President’s favor.” This falsehood exposes the Fulton County district attorney’s “grand jury” investigation and her targeting of Trump, Sen. Lindsey Graham, and other Republicans as a sham.In the response brief she filed last Thursday in support of the special purpose grand...

PRESS CONFERENCE VoterGA will announce a challenge to the primary results for the Secretary of State’s race in which Brad Raffensperger certified his own victory claiming 52% of the votes in a four-way race. June 23, 11 AM

Last night another shocking win occurred in the GOP primaries. GOP Representative and incumbent, Nancy Mace won her primary in South Carolina. Nancy Mace is a huge NeverTrumper who President Trump was vocal about replacing. When impossible election results occur, the 2020 Election taught us that they probably were impossible. America sat back and saw Joe Biden gather hundreds of thousands of votes after the polling centers were closed in key swing states across the country. By the next morning Biden was able to steal multiple states where President Trump was way ahead the night before. President Trump even warned...

Georgia’s top elections official was expected to appear Thursday before a special grand jury investigating whether former President Donald Trump and others illegally tried to meddle in the 2020 election in the state. Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger was summoned to the Fulton County courthouse where the special grand jury has been meeting, according to a subpoena obtained by The Associated Press through an open records request. Other subpoenas seek documents and testimony from five other people in his office. Raffensperger arrived at the courthouse in downtown Atlanta Thursday morning. When a reporter asked how the day would go, Raffensperger...

BUFORD, Ga. — Incumbent Brad Raffensperger held off a challenge from his Donald Trump-backed opponent, Rep. Jody Hice, R-Ga., in Georgia’s Republican secretary of state primary on Tuesday, NBC News projects. With 98 of precincts reporting, Raffensperger had 51.9 percent of the vote, while Hice had 33.8 percent. Two other lesser-known candidates — former Alpharetta Mayor David Belle Isle and former Judge T.J. Hudson — both received support in the single digits. Because Raffensperger received more than 50 percent of the vote, he was able to avoid a runoff against Hice, which is required under Georgia state law if no...

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp was projected to win his renomination for a second term on Tuesday, overcoming a primary challenge from former Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) and, by extension, former President Donald Trump. ABC and NBC News both called the race for Kemp around 8:30 p.m. ET. Kemp, a one-time ally of the former president, stirred Trump’s ire in the wake of the 2020 presidential election after he rebuffed his pleas to overturn President Biden’s electoral victory in Georgia. Trump vowed to campaign against Kemp, eventually persuading Perdue to enter the race for governor in hopes of ousting him.

ATLANTA (AP) — A judge in Georgia on Friday found that U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is qualified to run for reelection, finding that a group of voters who had challenged her eligibility failed to prove she engaged in insurrection after taking office. But the decision will ultimately be up to Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

The special grand jury that will help investigate former President Donald Trump for possibly criminal meddling in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election was seated Monday after a selection process that took less than 90 minutes. The probe employing the grand jury, seated in Atlanta, likely represents the biggest threat of criminal prosecution that Trump currently faces. While still president, and waiting for Congress to confirm President Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory, Trump in a Jan. 2, 2021, phone call urged Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” him enough votes to overturn Biden’s victory in that state. That call, and...

"What I found is we had 1,634 that were never put on the voter rolls, they were in the pending status, because they couldn't prove their citizenship," said Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. ============================================================================== Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said his office is investigating ballot harvesting and the registration of noncitizens to vote, both of which he suggests may have been orchestrated by third-party organizations. His office did a citizenship audit of Georgia's voter rolls and found more than 1,600 noncitizens who tried registering to vote, Raffensperger told the John Solomon Reports podcast Tuesday. "[W]hat I found is...

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) signed a bill on Wednesday empowering the state’s investigations agency to probe accusations of voter fraud, a power previously held only by the secretary of state. Kemp said the measure would help ensure secure and fair elections in the state, however critics say it was an unnecessary expense that served only to undermine voter confidence amid former President Trump’s claims that the 2020 election was stolen.

ATLANTA (CBS46) -- The race for Georgia’s governorship begins with the GOP Primary in just six weeks. Former President Donald Trump has endorsed David Perdue, but his attempt to unseat Brian Kemp isn’t showing up in the polls. CBS46 obtained a Landmark Communications survey of nearly 700 people which shows Kemp at the top of the poll with 52% support, David Perdue at 28%, and Kandiss Taylor with 10%. In the race for Georgia’s Secretary of State, Congressman Jody Hice has a commanding lead at 35%, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is at 18% and David Belle Isle has 10%...

The Georgia Republican primary race for Secretary of State is deadlocked in a virtual tie. Incumbent Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger does lead his primary challenger, U.S. Representative Jody Hice (R-GA-10); however, the lead is well within the poll’s 4.3 percent margin of error. Raffensperger, in a situation that many political observers consider alarming for an incumbent, polls at far less than fifty percent. According to a poll conducted by Emerson College Polling/The Hill, Raffensperger leads Hice 28.6 percent to 26.1 percent, a margin of 2.5 percentage points. 36.6 percent of those surveyed are undecided. Former President Donald Trump,...

The Georgia Elections Board has approved a subpoena to secure evidence and testimony in an ongoing investigation into whether third-party liberal activists illegally gathered thousands of absentee ballots in the 2020 general election and a subsequent runoff that determined Democrat control of the U.S. Senate. The vote was a major win for Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who announced the investigation into alleged ballot harvesting in January and was seeking the subpoena authority to assist the probe. The subpoena power will allow Raffensperger's team to secure evidence about a whistleblower who alleged to an election integrity group that he participated...

Apparently, Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is trying to force all 159 counties of Georgia into a one-year “maintenance program” to use the same infamous electronic voting system vendor that was used in the 2020 election. If these counties sign up for this program, they will essentially be trapped into using the same machines again in 2022. That’s right: Brad Raffensperger is trying to bluff Georgia’s county election officials into using the same electronic voting machines that made the 2020 election such an international scandal! It’s up to the local counties to decline to use these electronic voting machines...

ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger stopped by the Flint Riverquarium in Albany Friday. He spoke with students about integrity in the workplace and what happened during the 2020 election. WALB News 10′s Molly Godley was there and asked him a few questions about new voting laws and how to restore trust in Georgians when they cast their vote. “Your opponent congressman Jody Hice continues to say voter fraud is the reason why Trump lost what is your response to that?” WALB asked. “28,000 Georgians skipped the presidential ballot, they didn’t vote for anyone there, yet they...

President Trump’s team hired Auditor Bryan Geels after the 2020 Election to look into Georgia’s results. Geels identified 97,000 ballot issues in the state. When the President spoke of these issues with Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, the issues were misrepresented but Raffensperger’s team promised President Trump that they would get with the Trump team (i.e. Geels) to go over the results. Raffensperger’s team never addressed the issues and never contacted Geels. Instead, they lied to the press about the President’s phone call. Last week Garland Favorito from VoterGA held a presentation in Georgia showing thousands of ballot issues...

Bryan Geels identified nearly 100,000 ballots that should not have been included in the 2020 Election in Georgia. Secretary of State Raffensperger discounted Geels’s results, certified the election results for Job Biden with a 10,000 voter margin even though the standard of proof in an election contest in Georgia is doubt.In the presentation with Garland Favorito at VoterGA on Wednesday, February 9, 2022, a special guest was introduced by the name of Bryan Geels. Mr. Geels was hired by the Trump team in Georgia to review the results of the 2020 Election in that state. The Trump team sued the...

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger on Sunday rebuked Rep. Jody Hice (Ga.), his challenger in the upcoming GOP primary, as being "double-minded" when it comes to the most recent national elections. "The person I'm running against, Congressman Hice, he's been in Congress for several years. He's never done a single piece of election reform legislation. Then he certified his own race with those same machines, the same ballots, and yet for President Trump, he said you couldn't trust that," Raffensperger said on CBS's "Face the Nation." "That's a double-minded person, and as a pastor, he should know better. So...

A year after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp tells Axios he stands by his condemnation of the attack as a "disgrace," as well as his certification of Joe Biden as the election winner. But Kemp said he's continued to "thank" former President Donald Trump for “all the things that he did to help Georgia. I have never said a bad word about him.” Stay on top of the latest market trends and economic insights with Axios Markets.
