US House committee is seeking information from Georgia's governor and secretary of state as it investigates reports of voter registration problems and other issues in the state's 2018 elections.
A U.S. House committee is seeking a trove of information from Georgia's governor and secretary of state as it investigates reports of voter registration problems and other issues during the state's 2018 elections.
He said,"They need to quit playing politics up there," and said the U.S. House should focus on providing relief to south Georgia farmers still reeling from Hurricane Michael's damage in October. He did not mention voting or elections in his response. They included statements from Georgia voters who experienced long lines, last-minute polling place changes, missing or incorrect voter registration records and malfunctioning machines, among other issues.
It also found that over 1.4 million voter registrations had been cancelled since 2012. Some of those cancelled registrations were from voters who died or moved, but others were cancelled solely for failing to vote in several election cycles. Raffensperger said in a statement emailed to the AP that he"looks forward to an open dialogue and a thorough process."
