Today, following news that Republicans are seeking jail time for the Fulton County Commissioners who refused to help them appoint notorious election deniers to the Board of Elections, DPG Chair Charlie Bailey released the following statement:
“Republicans are so hell-bent on giving election deniers power to meddle in our elections that they’re attempting to throw Fulton County Commissioners in jail for refusing to help them do so, even as the legal dispute is on appeal. Seeking to punish your political opponents for taking a vote you don’t like is as outrageous, undemocratic, and un-American as it gets. We stand with the Fulton County Commissioners as they, in turn, stand up for Fulton County voters and the integrity of our elections.”
