The long-standing wrangle over voting rights and election security has come to a head in Georgia.
In an interview with the Associated Press, Raffensperger laid blame elsewhere, on “one or two counties,” saying state law charges counties with on-ground operation of elections. “It has nothing to do with what we’re doing in the rest of Georgia,” he said.
That kind of back and forth, with white Republicans and Black Democrats from big cities trading barbs over voting issues, isn’t new. And it could easily be repeated in November in battleground states where Democrats and minority voters figure prominently in the most populous cities and counties: Philadelphia; Milwaukee; Broward County , Fla.; Wayne County , Mich.; and Charlotte, N.C.
On absentee ballots, he pushed unprecedented no-fault absentee access, paying to send an application to every Georgian on the active voter rolls. But no additional money was provided to hire staff to process the influx, which dwarfed the typical primary.
