Fair Fight Action Statement on Movement of Primary Date to June 9

  • April 10, 2020

ATLANTA — Today, Fair Fight Action CEO Lauren Groh-Wargo issued the following statement in response to the Georgia Secretary of State’s decision to move the date of the primary election to June 9:

“Democrats, Republicans, and voting rights advocates alike supported the unprecedented decision to postpone the presidential primary to coincide with the previously scheduled state primary date next month. But changing the election date again does not change the fact that the Secretary of State has failed to provide return postage for applications and ballots and it does not change the fact that he is putting an undue burden and unfunded mandate on counties by failing to centralize the absentee voting operation in the state. Rather than improving election administration amid this pandemic, he is wasting time and resources on a so-called ‘fraud’ task force to intimidate voters. COVID-19 will remain a threat to our democracy, and will likely be present this entire year, so there is plenty that the Secretary of State could be doing to provide for safe and accessible voting both by mail and in person so that every eligible Georgian’s vote can be cast and is counted.”
