The board’s executive director, James Mills, asked the DOJ to intervene in the state’s voting systems and investigate Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger if he prevents the review.

In a letter addressed to Attorney General Todd Blanche, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin and Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon, Mills asks the DOJ for an “investigation and intervention” of Georgia’s voting systems in connection with ballot secrecy, preservation of election records, and sharing of voter registration and motor vehicle data with outside organizations.

The letter also asks the DOJ to hold Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger “accountable” if he withholds any information or prevents the review. Raffensperger, a Republican, resisted enormous pressure from President Donald Trump to “find” enough votes in Georgia to overturn his 2020 election loss.

    Not one single shread of evidence has been found of voter fraud. EVERY single time you here about election fraud, it’s from these disingenuous, lying through their teeth Republicans. I hope we start enforcing the penalty for federal election interference/fraud. At least give them life in prison.

        The traitors are bitching and whining about Raffensperger too:

        The Secretary of State’s Office told MS NOW it was not notified before the election board sent the letter to the DOJ.

        “People who are serious about election security don’t inject chaos in the eleventh hour. In roughly 30 days, Georgia’s 159 election directors will conduct a free, fair, and fast election for all eligible Georgia voters,” a representative for Raffensperger’s office told MS NOW.
