On Sunday, the Trump campaign announced that the Trump-Vance Campaign, RNC, and Georgia GOP have filed lawsuits in state and federal court challenging several Georgia counties that are illegally remaining open over the weekend to receive absentee ballots after early voting ended.
Read the full statement from the Trump campaign:
Early voting was required to end statewide on Friday, November 1. At the last minute several heavily Democrat counties announced they would open their offices over the weekend to receive mail ballots. This is illegal, so we immediately filed a state court lawsuit. In a win for election integrity, the counties retreated from plans to keep drop boxes open over the weekend, but we continue to fight the illegal re-opening of the centers in state and federal court.
This is a clear, partisan violation of the law intended to boost Democrat efforts in Georgia. With just two days until our country’s most important election, it is critical for officials to follow the law and run the election in a fair and transparent manner.
These actions by some Georgia counties do nothing but undermine the security of our elections and drive up mistrust in the process. Georgia must take immediate action to protect the vote.
