GA SOS office has just REMOVED tons of public data from its website




BREAKING: @BrianKempGA's Secretary of State office has just REMOVED tons of public data from its website

They've removed both PRE-2018 voting data and the entire page where 2018 absentee data was posted and updated. What don't they want Georgians to see?

I was able to open the page in the Wayback Machine, but the downlad links didn't work, for me.

Perhaps somone else could try.

Also, they may have removed the files in response to the criticism they received a few days ago that they were doxxing abstentee voters by having those files on the website.
e.g.:

Could also be something altogether more nefarious.

To what these Reich wing assholes will do to steal an election. This is Georgia after all, they must keep common folk down.

Among others. If this were on foreign soil, the UN might be stepping in.
