Republican activists are trying to remove Georgia voters through the courts
Georgia has entered into a legally mandated “quiet period” for hearing voter eligibility challenges, but that hasn’t stopped a small group of activists from keeping the pressure on election officials.
As a flurry of litigation ramps up ahead of the 2024 presidential race, conservative activists are bypassing local election boards and appealing to the courts to remove voter registrations they claim are ineligible.
The lawsuits come as prolific Republican activists in Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton and Gwinnett, who have seen county election boards dismiss more than 45,000 voter challenges since July 1, seek a new venue for their claims.
The DeKalb County Republican Party filed a lawsuit in superior court last month against the county election board accusing it of failing to maintain clean voter rolls and refusing to consider voter eligibility challenges. In another case, filed in the U.S. District Court in Atlanta, two conservative activists in Fulton County made similar accusations but later withdrew their lawsuit.
