News Story on the Many Georgia Election Procedures Lawsuits

This Axios story explains the various lawsuits challenging voting procedures in Georgia, including the case that challenges the statewide Public Service Commissioner elections. The plaintiffs argue that the Voting Rights Act requires Georgia to elect this office in district elections, not statewide elections.

The Axios story does not mention the Libertarian Party ballot access lawsuit, which is in the U.S. Supreme Court, although the Court won’t decide whether to hear it or not until late September or even later. On August 4, the Georgia Secretary of State informed the U.S. Supreme Court that the state doesn’t plan to respond, unless of course the Court asks for a response.
