ATLANTA – Today, Fair Fight Action CEO Lauren Groh-Wargo issued the following statement in response to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s press conference in which he unveiled a so-called plan to fix the election meltdown last week, for which he bears responsibility:
“Secretary of State Raffensberger’s buck-passing theatrics will do nothing to make voting more accessible. His responsibility to train county officials is nothing new – it has been part of our lawsuit for 18 months – and it is a statutory requirement of the Secretary of State, not a Band-Aid solution to his election meltdown. Further, by refusing to send mail-in ballot applications to Georgia voters, he is willfully making voting lines longer. Fair Fight Action will continue to hold him accountable and demand that he do his job without malfeasance and deliberate indifference so that every eligible Georgian’s vote can be cast and counted.”
