Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger (R), announced Monday Nov. 30th, he was Opening an Investigation into Third-Party Voting Groups that allegedly are Encouraging People outside Georgia to Register to Vote in January 5th, 2021, Senate Runoff Elections.
Raffensperger at a Press Conference named Four Groups he would be Investigating: America Votes; Vote Forward; The New Georgia Project; and Operation New Voter Registration Georgia.
"We have opened an investigation into a group called America Votes, who is sending absentee ballot applications to people at addresses where they have not lived since 1994," said Raffensperger.
In a Statement, America Votes said it has Mailed Applications to those on the List of Voters maintained by Raffensperger's Office. "We're pleased that so many Georgians have already applied to vote by mail this election and will continue our work to make sure every voice is heard in January," said the Group.
Republican Incumbent Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler will face Democrats Jon Ossoff and the Rev. Raphael Warnock. The Outcome of the Two Races will determine which Party Controls the Senate.
The Current Certified Totals:
General Election: David Perdue (R-Incumbent) with 2,460,617, and Jon Ossoff (D) with 2,373,519, a Difference of 88,098. The Other Total is 115,039, for a Total Vote of 4,952,775.
Special Election: Raphael Warnock (D) with 1,617,035, and Kelly Loeffler (R-Incumbent) with 1,273,214 a Differeance of 344,421. The Total of Others is 2,024,112 for a Total Vote of 4,914,361.
So the Senate could be Republicans with 51/49 Seats, which it would have been if No Run-Off.
Raffensperger accused: Vote Forward of attempting to Register a Dead Woman in Alabama as a Voter in Georgia; The New Georgia Project of sending Registration Forms to People in New York; and Operation New Voter Registration Georgia of telling College Students to Temporarily Change their Residency to Georgia.
"Voting in Georgia when you are not a resident of Georgia is a felony, and encouraging college kids to commit felonies with no regard for what [it] might mean for them is despicable. These third-party groups have a responsibility to not encourage illegal voting. If they do so, they will be held responsible," said Raffensperger.
The State's Voting System Manager, Gabriel Sterling, said he assumes the Groups will Claim those Incidents as Legitimate or Accidental. "But that's why you investigate," said Sterling.
According to Sterling, 940,000 Georgians have already Requested Absentee Ballots for the Runoff Elections, while 1.3 Million Georgians Requested Absentee Ballots for the Nov. 3rd Election.
Raffensperger, who said he Voted for Trump, has stood by the Results and has shot back at Claims that Georgia's Voting System allowed for a Fraudulent Result. So far, an Audit of the Voting Machines and a Hand Recount have been Conducted, both Reaffirming President-eEect Joe Biden as the Winner.
On Monday, Trump's Campaign Requested an Audit of the Signatures on the Ballots for the Fifth time. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) has also voiced his Support for a Sample Audit of Signatures.
Trump told Reporters last week he would Travel to Georgia in order to Support the GOP Candidates in their Respective Elections.
