Common Sense Elections Team Member Funds Georgia Lawsuit.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger served at home.
On September 28, Georgia citizens filed suit in Federal Court against Brad Raffensperger, Georgia Secretary of State.
Their suit demands Raffensperger follow the NVRA and Georgia law to maintain accurate, and timely registrations in Georgia’s voter rolls. The lawsuit seeks to enforce laws that protect Georgians’ right to vote from dilution.
Georgia’s current voter rolls contain thousands of voter registrations that appear to be invalid because the voter in question either permanently moved out of state and is no longer a citizen of Georgia, or permanently moved to a different county in Georgia from the county in which they are presently registered. Because the Secretary of State Offices were closed due to weather, members of the plaintiff party served Secretary Raffensperger at his home with the lawsuit.
Earlier in 2024, the Common Sense Elections team, using official Georgia data demonstrated thousands of anomalous addresses at which a mail-in ballot could be sent but not likely received by a real voter.
The team also found over 30,000 Georgia voters with multiple voter ID numbers, the voting equivalent of having the government deliberately issue multiple Social Security Numbers.
Georgia was found by Common Sense Elections to have some of the worst, most inaccurate voter rolls in the country.
This lawsuit does not seek to cancel or remove any registrations from Georgia’s voter rolls. Instead, it asks the court to order that Secretary of State Raffensperger direct the County Election offices to conduct activities to determine whether these apparently invalid registrations include accurate current addresses – something the counties should already have been doing per NVRA and Georgia law guidelines.
If they are unable to confirm that the registrations in question include accurate and current addresses, the suit simply asks that these registrations be changed to “inactive” status.
This change would neither cancel nor remove the registrations from the voter roll and registrants can easily reactivate their registration through communication with their election office.
