Georgia Gov. Kemp Seeks AG Guidance on Removing Three Election Board Members Amid Ethics Concerns
Aug 26, 2024, 07:30 PM
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is seeking guidance from the Attorney General on whether he has the authority to remove three members of the State Election Board. The inquiry comes amid concerns over recent actions by the board, which includes members aligned with former President Donald Trump. These members have been involved in implementing election integrity reforms and have recently voted to investigate a 2020 election fraud complaint. The move has sparked reactions from various groups, including voting rights organizations, Democrats, and some Republicans, who have raised alarms about the board's right-wing majority and its decisions. Kemp's actions are seen as a response to ethics concerns, complaints, and changes in election law.
