Georgia governor inquires whether he can remove MAGA election board members after series of alarming votes
Donald Trump recently praised the right-wing coalition on the Georgia state election board
Georgia's Republican Governor #Brian #Kemp asked Attorney General Christopher Carr for “guidance” on whether he can remove members of the state election board, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
This comes ♦️after three right-wing members of the five-person board championed and #passed a series of new rules that add #extra #requirements for county election boards to #certify their results. ♦️
Under the rules passed this month
— less than 100 days before election day on November 5
— county boards must make a “reasonable inquiry” before certifying the election.
However, the rules do not define what an inquiry should involve or what “reasonable” means, according to the Journal-Constitution.
County election boards are also required to hold a meeting to verify their vote count on the Friday after election day -- which is before the ballot return deadline for voters overseas and in the military❗️
