Georgia GOP clash: Perdue files lawsuit against law allowing Kemp to raise unlimited funds

New Georgia law allows Kemp, but not his challengers, to set up a leadership committee that can raise unlimited funds

Paul Steinhauser | 6 Jan 2022

Former Sen. David Perdue of Georgia, who's primary challenging Republican Gov. Brian Kemp in this year's election, is taking aim at a state law that allows the incumbent governor to raise unlimited campaign contributions.

Perdue on Thursday filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Georgia Senate Bill 221, which allows Kemp – as well as a handful of state legislative leaders – to set up leadership funds or committees that can haul in and spend unlimited amounts of campaign cash. Word of Perdue's filing was shared first nationally with Fox News.

The bill was approved during Georgia’s 2020 legislative session mostly along party lines by the GOP controlled chambers and Kemp quietly signed the measure into law last May. Kemp's campaign created the Georgians First Leadership Committee in June, just days after the new law went into effect.  .  .  .

So while Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger was rewriting Georgia election law in order to help Democrats steel an election, the priority of the State Legislature was to pass a law protecting incumbents from election challenges.  At least we know where their priorities lie.

As Georgia ballot harvesting probe starts, some election evidence has vanished already

Some big Georgia counties say they didn't retain surveillance video from absentee drop boxes in the 2020 election.

John Solomon and Natalia Mittelstadt   |   January 7, 2022 - 10:56pm

Since 1960, federal civil rights law has required state and local election officials to "retain and preserve" records relating to elections involving federal officeholders for 22 months after ballots are cast.

That would seem to be a good thing as Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger embarks on an investigation into whether third-party liberal activists in 2020 illegally gathered and delivered absentee ballots for voters — a practice known as harvesting that is outlawed in the Peach State.

But some of Georgia's largest counties tell Just the News that they no longer possess evidence that could be helpful to probing the harvesting allegations: video camera surveillance footage that monitored the drop boxes installed around Georgia to help voters cast ballots during the pandemic.

Election officials in several counties say the reason they discarded the footage is that the emergency rules issued by the State Elections Board said they only needed to keep the footage for 30 days after the election.

"We took direction from the Secretary of State and State Election Board, assuming they were not implementing a Rule contrary to law," said the Cobb County elections office, which acknowledged it deleted its video footage from 2020. "Drop boxes were established under an emergency order from the Governor."

Fulton County, home to Atlanta and the state's largest voting metropolis, said it too has long since deleted the files.  .  .  .

Brad Raffensperger broke the law.  He should be prosecuted.  So did Cobb and Fulton County election boards.  They know what federal law says.  They willfully broke it.

Jan 20, 2022

Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s dreams for an easy reelection bid is becoming seemingly more unlikely, as recent polling reports he is down double-digits in a hypothetical 2022 GOP primary.

Former Sen. David Perdue, R-Ga., whose gubernatorial bid is backed by President Trump, holds a commanding lead over “RINO” Kemp, according to a Fabrizio Lee & Associates poll.

The research shows Perdue led Kemp 47 percent to 44 percent in a hypothetical 2022 GOP primary. After respondents were told that Trump backed Perdue, the former senator’s lead skyrocketed to 56 percent to Kemp’s 34 percent, a 22-point jump.

How do those two (Kemp and Perdue) poll against the Election Sow (Abrams)? I'm not a fan of Kemp, but if got serious concerns about Perdue. He's classic Georgia "good ol' boy" and I guarantee you he's a republican out of expediency rather than any firmly held beliefs.

Georgia Secretary of State Calls for Release of ‘Secret Report’ on Dominion Voting Machines

Zachary Stieber  |  January 29, 2022

Georgia’s secretary of state has joined plaintiffs in lawsuit filed against him in calling for the release of a report that analyzes Dominion Voting Systems equipment.

The report, completed by J. Alex Halderman, director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society, was filed under seal in Curling v. Raffensperger, a federal case that alleged hackers had “the capability” and “easy access” to voting machines in Georgia.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, said Jan. 26 that the report should be made public because it is “generating misleading media articles about the Dominion voting equipment used in Georgia.”  .  .  .

Secret report finds flaw in Georgia voting system, but state in the dark

Mark Niesse, AJC  |  Jan 26, 2022

A judge is considering releasing a redacted version of the report based on requests in court Thursday from Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and plaintiffs in an election security lawsuit.

A confidential report alleges that hackers could flip votes if they gained access to Georgia’s touchscreens, drawing interest from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Louisiana election officials and Fox News.

One key agency hasn’t asked the court to disclose the report: the Georgia secretary of state’s office. [pre Jan 29]

There’s no sign that state election officials have done anything about the vulnerability, a potential flaw dangerous enough to be kept under seal, labeled in court as “attorneys’ eyes only” six months ago.  .  .  .

40K Election Fraud Affidavits Delivered to Gov Kemp

Governor Kemp’s staff received 40,000 election fraud affidavits for the 2020 election in Georgia. But how can this be? It was the most secure election ever.

A local group called Georgia Patriots (led by Holly Kelser) showed up to deliver about 40,000 sworn affidavits regarding 2020 election fraud to the office of Governor Brian Kemp.  .  .

Federal judge rules that Graham must testify in Georgia 2020 investigation

A federal judge in Atlanta has denied GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham's motion to quash a subpoena, ruling that he must testify before a Fulton County grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
In her written decision on Monday, US District Judge Leigh Martin May sent the case to the Superior Court of Fulton County to hear further proceedings on the US Constitution's "Speech or Debate" clause, the centerpiece that Graham's attorneys argued immunized the US senator from South Carolina from having to testify in this case.

"Because the record must be more fully developed before the Court can address the applicability of the 'Speech or Debate' clause to specific questions or lines of inquiry, and because Senator Graham's only request in removing the subpoena to this Court was to quash the subpoena in its entirety, the Case is REMANDED to the Superior Court of Fulton County for further proceedings," May wrote in the ruling.

The South Carolina Republican is scheduled to appear as a witness in Atlanta in front of the special grand jury on August 23.

In her ruling, May wrote that there are "considerable areas of inquiry" that are not "legislative in nature" and said that the District Attorney's office has shown "extraordinary circumstances and a special need for Senator Graham's testimony on issues relating to alleged attempts to influence or disrupt the lawful administration of Georgia's 2020 elections." ..............

Rudy Giuliani target of Georgia investigation over election claims
The Post Millennial, Aug 15, 2022

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani is set to testify on August 17 in Atlanta, Georgia in front of a grand jury in, what the prosecution alleges was his role in looking into election integrity concerns in Georgia's 2020 general election results.

Giuliani was informed that he was the target of a probe into his possible interference in the 2020 election. Much of this stems from the Trump campaign's efforts to create slates of alternate electors who could vote for Trump in the Electoral College should the original results be found inaccurate.

The investigation is being led by the district attorney of Fulton County, Fani Willis. On August 9, a Fulton County judge in Georgia ordered Trump's former private attorney to appear before a special grand jury.

It's a possibility @sneakypete  but I think it was someone much closer in Trump's inner circle.  My bet is on Kushner.  I rule out Eric, or Don Jr. I've never, ever trusted Kushner and I don't think Ivanka can be trusted either.  At a stretch maybe Tiffany's new beau, but I doubt he'd be able to get that close yet.

Previously Unreleased Document Raises More Questions About Fulton County’s 2020 Election

Fulton County was unaware that the document was in someone's possession prior to its release.

ADDISON BASURTO  October 14, 2022

A previously unreleased document for the certified vote recount (Machine Count 2) conducted on December 1st and 2nd, 2020 — titled “Batches Loaded Report #1” (BLR1), raises even more serious questions about how the certified vote count for the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election in Fulton County, Georgia was obtained.

Joe Rossi, a former business executive and chemical engineer, is a Georgia citizen whose election integrity group’s work was the basis for Governor Brian P. Kemp’s letter date November 17, 2021, where Kemp (R) said the State Election Board (SEB) “must act swiftly” regarding the Risk-Limiting Audit Report for Fulton County.

Specifically, the governor stated that, “the data that exists in public view on the Secretary of State’s website of the RLA report, does not inspire confidence. It is sloppy, inconsistent and presents questions.”

On December 2, 2020 at 11:52 PM, Fulton County Georgia announced, “Fulton County Has Completed The Recount Of The November 3 Presidential Election. Results will be released by the Secretary of State’s Office.”

Subsequently, on December 3rd, 2020 at 12:06 PM, the first Batches Loaded Report (BLR1) report was time-stamped. The BLR is produced after uploading each tabulator’s memory card to the Dominion Election Management System and is the final vote count.

The metadata for BLR1, measured in Zulu Time, said the BLR1 report was created at 12:06 PM, while the email from then-Fulton County Elections Director Richard Barron to Ryan Macias, a member of the National Task Force on Election Crises and “elections expert,” was sent at 12:13 PM, just seven minutes later. The email had an attachment, “Batches Loaded Report.xml.”

Barron admitted in a Fulton Elections Board Meeting on December 4th, 2020 that their vote count was short of Machine Count 1’s total, the original November 3rd tally. In that same meeting, Barron stated that “the state” told them to “reconcile” it.

Seven minutes later, at 12:13 PM, Batches Loaded Report 1 (BLR1) was attached in an email sent by Richard Barron to Ryan Macias.

In the aftermath of the 2020 US Presidential Election, Ryan Macias came to the aide of former Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Chris Krebs, by agreeing with his assessment that the reports about problems in Georgia’s election were “factually inaccurate.”

511,727 votes were recorded in Batches Loaded Report 1 (BLR1), about 17,000 votes short of the November 3rd total from Machine Count 1.

The reconciliation process requested of Richard Barron by “the state” resulted in the generation of Batches Loaded Report #2 (BLR2) sometime after 12:06 PM on December 3rd, 2020. Batches Loaded Report #2 (BLR2) totaled 527,925 votes.

These questions remain unanswered for the reconciliation process for Machine Count 2, which generated the BLR2 total of 527,925 votes.

• Why were there 3,125 confirmed duplicate ballot images?
  
  
• Why were there 17,852 confirmed missing ballot images?
  
  
• Why were there 13,642 early votes backloaded between 10:16 PM on December 3rd and 12:30 AM on December 4th?
  
  
• Why were 239 absentee ballots added on December 3rd, 2020 at 1:48 PM?
  
  
• Why were 2,897 absentee ballots added on December 3rd, 2020 between 8:10 PM and 8:18 PM?

This information reinforces the idea that something suspicious occurred regarding Batches Loaded Report #2 (BLR2).

The Office of the Fulton County attorney confirmed in an email that there is no record for the tabulator tapes listed below:

https://nationalfile.com/previously-unreleased-document-raises-more-questions-about-fulton-countys-2020-election/


That's almost 21,000 votes with non-existing ballots being added to the election total.  And this is only one county.

Trump, Purdue, and Loeffler all won their races in 2020.  Comfortably.  Not only was this election stolen, it has been proven to have been stolen.

Can someone dumb down this so I can follow it, she talked gibberish to me.

I haven't gone through the recent news, but I can give you some inside info.  First of all, Ruby Freeman and her daughter were involved with the Fulton County election shenanigans back in 2020.  Both of them were in the room where cases of ballots were pulled out of hiding from under tables in a county election room.  This is the room where Republican poll watchers were sent home because of a water leak.



Ruby was filmed repeatedly feeding the same stack of ballots through a machine multiple times.  She was also photographed at her desk with blank ballots visible on top.  She was also guilty of mishandling thumb drives containing tabulated vote counts from machines.

From what I hear, she has received a lot of pressure from the Dem side over the last two years, and she has grown sick of it.  So she is now willing to come clean.  Not that this will do any good since the ones she will be coming clean to are even more corrupt than she is.  The SoS is corrupt.  The Governor is corrupt.  The new Lt. Governor is corrupt.   And most importantly of all, the AG is corrupt.

Georgia appeals court reinstates Fulton County 2020 election case

Natalia Mittelstadt  |  January 12, 2023  |  3:09pm

he Georgia Court of Appeals has reinstated a 2020 election lawsuit against Fulton County election officials after the state Supreme Court sent the case back to the lower court last month.

On Monday, the appeals court reinstated the Garland Favorito, et al. v. Alex Wan, et al. case, which alleges that counterfeit ballots were included in the 2020 absentee election results in Fulton County.

The lawsuit against the members of the county Board of Registration and Elections was originally filed in December 2020 by VoterGA, an election integrity nonprofit organization.

The case was separated into two different cases, the other one being Caroline Jeffords, et al. v. Fulton County, et al.  .  .

Georgia's Election Officials Are Getting Ready To Cheat Again

There's still 17,852 votes without ballots that Fulton County won't explain!

EMERALD ROBINSON  |  OCT 5, 2023

First, Georgia election officials told you that the 2020 election was “the most secure in history.”

Then they tried to hide any evidence of cheating.

Then they ignored the evidence of cheating that was discovered only because they were sued in court and forced to release it.

Then they ignored the analysis of computer experts who gave sworn declarations about the vote rigging in their reports submitted to the courts.

Now, Georgia election officials are trying to tell Georgia voters that they don’t understand any of this evidence so they won’t make any changes to the election system.

Here’s a letter from investigator Kevin Moncla to the Georgia Secretary of State explaining that feigning stupidity is not actually a valid defense of their fraud.  .  .

https://www.emerald.tv/p/georgias-election-officials-are-getting

[Hoodat]

From the article:

Vincent Zagorin and Brad Raffensperger have both perfected the child’s defense of the “dog ate my homework” to a new level.

Mr. Zagorin is sending requests to see old documents that have been attached to these court cases for the last 14 months.



The results of the 2020 election were certified as correct and accurate by Zagorin even though 6,000 ballots were removed from the hand-count and the audit.

How do we know that’s truth?

Because Kevin Moncla and others discovered the missing batches of ballots — and they can identify the missing images!

Beware: scanner 801 has got some bad batches.






So that's almost 18k Biden votes in Fulton County alone where no ballot exists.

[sneakypete]

Since no one prominent in the DNC or the Media is going to  start pushing this,it might as well be legal because the Dims are NOT going to stop until they start administering "Stalin Elections"

Truth to tell,they are there already because it SEEMS like no one with  any horsepower in the RNC is going to make an issue out of this.

What is even worse,is the FACT that the mainstream media is NOT going to start airing "exposes" on it to get Jim and Judy Judgemental fired up and starting marches because most people STILL get all their news from their TV's or their local newspapers.

America as a free and independent  nation is now all but dead,and it's because most people don't care enough to pay attention to what is going on.

From the Report:

1 Overview
In 2020, Georgia replaced its insecure, decades-old DRE voting machines with new
ballot scanners and ballot marking devices (BMDs) manufactured by Dominion
Voting Systems. Although the same BMDs are used for accessibility in partsof approximately 15 other states, Georgia is unique in using them statewide asthe primary method of in-person voting [
89]
. This unusual arrangement places
potentially malicious computers between Georgia voters and their paper ballots.
In contrast, in most of the United States, voters mark paper ballots directly by
hand, and BMDs are reserved for those who need or request them
 [87
]. Georgians
who vote at a polling place generally have no choice but to use the BMDs.
All voting systems face cybersecurity risks. As the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine recently concluded “[t]here is no realisticmechanism to fully secure vote casting and tabulation computer systems fromcyber threats”
 [58
]. However, not all voting systems are equally vulnerable.
Curling Plaintiffs contend that Georgia’s universal-use BMD voting system is
 so
insecure
 that it violates voters’ constitutional rights.
To assist the Court in understanding the risks that the system creates, CurlingPlaintiffs asked me to conduct a security analysis of the ImageCast X (ICX) BMD
and associated equipment used in Georgia elections. Using an ICX provided by
Fulton County, I played the role of an attacker and attempted to discover ways
to compromise the system and change votes. I, along with my assistant, spent a
total of approximately twelve person-weeks studying the machines, testing forvulnerabilities, and developing proof-of-concept attacks. Many of the attacksI successfully implemented could be effectuated by malicious actors with verylimited time and access to the machines, as little as mere minutes. This report
documents my findings and conclusions.

[Hoodat]

Here's what Raffensperger said six months ago:

June 20th, 2023
Dear Members of the General Assembly,

Georgia’s election system is secure. It’s been battle-tested through two general elections, subjected to repeated audits and intense public scrutiny, and come through with flying colors. Georgia’s election officials are proceeding judiciously and responsibly to ensure that our elections are secure, accurate and accessible to the voters. Every single piece of voting equipment across Georgia will undergo security health checks ahead of the 2024 presidential elections, including verification no software has been tampered with.

The current proposed software upgrade has never been deployed for a major election anywhere in the nation. There are pilot tests of the upgrade that will take place in some local jurisdictions in Ohio, and Georgia will test it in some municipal elections this fall. In an initial evaluation by our election officials, the upgraded software was found to be incompatible with our poll pads. Discovering that problem during an election would have caused chaos. Discovering it ahead of time allows us to develop a patch that addresses the issue -without risking any election or public trust in the results.

The “critics of Georgia’s election security” you’ve probably seen quoted in the media are from one of only two groups: election-denying conspiracy theorists or litigants in the long-running Curling lawsuit. These two groups make ever-shifting but always baseless assertions that Georgia’s election system is at risk because bad actors might hack the system and change the result of an election. These are the same assertions we heard in 2016, when Russia supposedly “hacked the election,” and in 2018, when Stacey Abrams refused to concede because of “voter suppression.” We heard them in 2020, and conducted a risk-limiting audit and a full hand recount of every ballot in Georgia to prove that our results were accurate, and our elections were and are secure. The 2022 elections saw record-breaking voter turnout, high levels of voter satisfaction and virtually zero complaints about the process -or the results.

That system, proven and tested, is the system we have in place today for Georgia elections. We have layers of security protocols and procedures to physically protect ballots, the system, the software, and the results. We have tests and audits to verify results. We have to run elections in the real-world, not just create conspiracies or hypothetical possibilities.

The Halderman report was the result of a computer scientist having complete access to the Dominion equipment and software for three months in a laboratory environment. It identified risks that are theoretical and imaginary. Our security measures are real and mitigate all of them. The MITRE report is available on our website for anyone to read and points out that the vulnerabilities described by Halderman as operationally infeasible. Specifically, the MITRE report found “five of six attacks were…non-scalable, impacting a statistically insignificant number of votes on a single device at a time. One attack was technically scalable but also…infeasible due to access controls in place in operational election environments, access required to Dominion election software, and access required to Dominion election hardware.”

Is it possible for a team of bad actors to break into Georgia’s 2700 voting precincts, install malware that changes election outcomes on 35,000 pieces of equipment, and sneak back out -all the while being undetected and leaving no trace? I’ll put it this way: It’s more likely that I could win the lottery without buying a ticket. If the threat to election security comes down to bad people doing bad things, that threat is addressed with locks and keys and surveillance cameras and physical security measures, and punishment for those who break our laws.  .  .

My lasting memory of GA that night was the phantom Fulton County water leak, and the mysterious paper going over the windows to conceal goings on. 

Considering Pedo Joe won GA's 16 EV's by 12K votes, I'd say where there is smoke there is fire.

Here's what Raffensperger said six months ago:

A pardon and a bonus bag of cash  left on his doorstep?

They didn't count on State Farm Arena having its own security video. Somehow, Rudy is on the hook for allegedly misinterpreting what his lying eyes told him.
