Georgiaās GOP-controlled State Election Board is poised to adopt a rule on Monday that would give county election board members an additional avenue to delay certification of election results, potentially allowing them to throw the stateās vote count into chaos this fall.
A former Fulton County election official who submitted an initial draft of the rule told ProPublica that she had done so at the behest of a regional leader of a right-wing organization involved in challenging the legitimacy of American election systems. That organization, the Election Integrity Network, is led by Cleta Mitchell, who helped orchestrate attempts to overturn the 2020 election andĀ spoke on the callin which former President Donald Trump demanded that Georgiaās secretary of state āfindā him 11,780 votes to undo Joe Bidenās victory.
The Election Integrity Networkās role in bringing forward the proposed rule has not been previously reported.
The media conveniently ignores it. Loads of media companies are for profit instead of reporting whatās going on. Media is needed in a democracy. Unfortunately media being a business makes them easy to be bought.
Also, with this, it makes it wayyyyy too hard for them to revert to their stupid āboth sidesā narratives and being āobjectiveā, āneutralā, etcā¦
If they were to properly report it, itās not like they can credibly claim āboth sidesā on election shenanigansā¦for example, letting cons bleat about mail-in voting as if itās some nefarious plot only makes the cons look ridiculous to most people. So if the corporate media downplays this, it is not surprising at all.
