Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley announced Saturday that the election integrity wing of the organization has filed a lawsuit against counties in Georgia.
“Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb, and Gwinnett counties decided at the last minute to accept ballots over the weekend — which disregards the law,” Whatley wrote on the social media platform, X.
“They have also failed to let our poll observers in to watch the process,” he added. “The Secretary of State has issued guidance to allow Republican poll watchers in but local officials REFUSE. Our election integrity operation has filed a lawsuit.”
Whatley said that Democratic officials are playing “fast and loose” with election law.
“Georgia voters demand that the state and courts ensure that these reckless counties administer fair, transparent, and secure elections,” Whatley said. “Anything less undermines public trust.”
This is not the first time counties in the Peach State have been sued this year regarding elections.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Southern Poverty Law Center sued a Georgia county over allegations that it failed to send out approximately 3,000 absentee ballots by a requested deadline.
