https://www.gregpalast.com/palast-offer-lawsuit-threat-to-georgia-sos-raffensperger/Joins with Black Voters Matter to Reverse Illegal Purge
By Greg Palast 9.22.20
Breaking News:
The Secretary of State of Georgia, Brad Raffensperger, admitted to CNN that they did not use a postal service licensee to check the names and addresses of voters on their purge list to verify that they had moved (we did!). This means that his entire 2019 purge is illegal under the National Voter Registration Act, Section 8(c)(A).
In other words, he flat-out lied. He said he used a "respected licensee," a complete fabrication.
Let the people vote, Mr. Raffensperger. His office has reportedly said, The Post Office is our licensee. There is no such thing; thats why the law specifically states, Postal Service licensee. The Palast Fund retained the USPS licensee, Merkle Inc. Now we know the key reason he removed tens of thousands of voters wronglydisproportionately Black, low-income and young voters.
Today, Greg Palast and The Palast Investigative Funds attorney sent a formal, legal notice to Georgias Secretary of State. https://www.gregpalast.com/wp-content/uploads/Letter-to-Secertary-of-State-Raffensperger.pdf
The letter demands that Raffensperger review our evidence that he wrongly removed 198,351 voters from Georgias registration rolls.
This follows the ACLU of Georgias release of the Palast report Georgia Voter Roll Purge Errors.
Furthermore, Palast Fund attorney Jeanne Mirer demanded that Raffensperger reveal the name of his so-called expert who gave him this bogus, racially biased purge list or face another legal action under the National Voter Registration Act.

(54,770 posts)a mailed notice. One can check their registration on-line and register on-line. Im sorry, that doesnt sound like the awful purge Palast tries to make it.

Look at how the police are caught in lies. And by the way, they knocked on doors in Georgia to tell Black people that they could be arrested for improper voting.
Kemp was in charge of the election last time.
Ive read plenty of articles about people getting removed from voter rolls even when they DID vote last time.

(431 posts)Isnt it supposed to be two years in prison for knowledge of every name on the list for a civil rights violation?
Shit might slow down if somebody got sentenced to 180,000 years.
