Record Turnout Busts Voter Suppression Myth

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · November 01, 2022 5:56 PM

One of the most pervasive narratives being pushed about our elections is that voting has become more difficult and voter suppression is rampant. However, Michigan's Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and Georgia's Republican Secretary of State Brand Raffensperger teamed up earlier this week to bust this myth in an op-ed published by USA Today:

Voters in recent years have been inundated with disinformation telling them they can’t trust their fellow citizens and neighbors who administer elections. That voting is getting harder, and powerful forces are trying to prevent them from expressing their voice. That in a nation as closely divided as ours, the only secure election is one where the candidate they voted for wins.

Election Results Denier Stacey Abrams Dealt Blow in Court Ruling

Posted on Blog by Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) · September 30, 2022 11:27 PM

Prolific election results denier Stacey Abrams was dealt a blow in court on Friday when her organization lost a lawsuit challenging Georgia voting laws. The suit was originally filed after her loss in the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial election. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported:

U.S. District Judge Steve Jones’ judgment concludes the ambitious case against Georgia’s voter registration and absentee ballot practices after a trial in which voters testified about problems at the polls but few of them were unable to cast a ballot.

“Although Georgia’s election system is not perfect, the challenged practices violate neither the Constitution nor the VRA (Voting Rights Act),” Jones wrote in a 288-page order.

The DOJ Stands Ready to Tilt the Electoral Scales in the Administration's Favor

Posted on Blog by Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) · July 11, 2022 5:43 PM

With the Midterm Elections only a few months away, the nation's attention is starting to focus on the Department of Justice (DOJ) and what role the DOJ might play in this election to help Democrats.  Just over a year ago, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced his intention to double the number of lawyers working in the Voting Section of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, which is charged with enforcing voting laws.  With a couple of well-publicized exceptions (e.g., Georgia, Texas, and Arizona), so far the DOJ has been relatively quiet.  Is this the calm before the storm?

Record Turnout Destroys Voter Suppression Claims

Posted on Blog by Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) · June 16, 2022 8:23 PM

Contrary to allegations from the Left that states like Iowa and Georgia engaged in voter suppression by passing stronger election laws after the 2020 election, these states are experiencing record-breaking voter turnout.

Stacey Abrams Won a Primary, But Lost All Credibility

Posted on Blog by Michael Thielen · May 25, 2022 5:50 PM

Stacey Abrams once again won the Democrat nomination for Governor of Georgia last night after running unopposed.  However, she lost her credibility in the process as her claims of voter suppression were proven entirely wrong.  Ever since she was defeated by over 50,000 votes in 2018, Abrams has not stopped fighting "voter suppression" in Georgia and across the nation.  When Georgia’s mainstream election reforms (S.B. 202) were passed in 2021, she claimed this would result in even more voter suppression.  In reality, this could not be further from the truth.  First, let's look at the facts as made evident by yesterday's Democratic Primary in Georgia:

In other words, not only did the law decried as “Jim Crow 2.0,” “Jim Crow on steroids,” and “Jim Eagle” increase overall turnout; under the new law, 27 percent more people voted in the Democratic primary — even with an uncontested race. This is the odd voter-suppression bill that results in many, many, many more people voting. (emphasis in original)

Record Voter Turnout in Georgia Dispels Democrat Myths

Posted on Blog by Anna Dean · May 24, 2022 4:30 PM

Despite Joe Biden and other Democrats calling Georgia’s Election Integrity Act “Jim Crow 2.0,” the 2022 primary election early voting turnout has reached a record high. 

857,401 voters cast their ballots leading up to Election Day: an all-time high for Georgia.  But contrary to allegations on the Left that Georgia's new voting laws would suppress voters, this record turnout is actually the result of these recent election integrity reforms passed by the GOP-led state legislature and signed into law by Republican Governor Brian Kemp.

Biden Proposes What He Previously Called "A Very Dangerous Thing"

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · January 11, 2022 6:37 PM

Republicans and Democrats spent Tuesday presenting dueling visions for America's elections. Republicans want to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat, while the Democrats, led by President Biden, are willing to do whatever it takes—including changing the Senate filibuster—to achieve a partisan takeover of our elections.

Democrats will do whatever they have to do to get their way—including changing the rules—to fundamentally change U.S. elections.

RNC: Last Week's Elections Show the Success of GOP-Backed Election Integrity Measures

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · November 09, 2021 8:24 PM

It's been one week since Election Day, and as the RNC reports, last week's elections are proof that GOP-backed voting reforms work:

  • In Georgia, Democrats lied about SB202, Georgia’s election integrity law, which led to a Democrat-backed boycott meant to hurt small businesses.
    • On Election Day, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution wrote that voters saw “short lines,” “few problems,” and no “obstacles at the polls.”

Congressional Democrats Anti-Election Integrity Narrative Undermined by Reality in the States

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · October 14, 2021 7:13 PM

While Democrats in Washington deny the need for election integrity measures and continually try to undermine them with bills such as H.R. 1, H.R. 4, and the misnamed "Freedom to Vote Act," the past week has been a busy one across the country for allegations of voter fraud and election misconduct.

In Michigan, three individuals were charged with voter fraud after the state's voter integrity measures flagged their respective actions:

Michigan residents Trenae Myesha Rainey, Carless Clark and Nancy Juanita Williams have been charged with attempting to commit voter fraud following state investigations that resulted in accusations that the women improperly filed out ballot applications and ballots during the November 2020 general election, according to a state news release. . .
