Raphael Warnock-linked New Georgia Project facing possible voter fraud charges, officials say















ATLANTA — Georgia election officials say they’re referring for possible criminal prosecution a potential voter fraud case involving a group recently linked to one of the state’s new Democratic U.S. senators – The New Georgia Project.

U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock, a Democrat elected to the Senate last month, is named as a respondent in the case because of his former ties to the group, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

It’s among 35 cases involving potential violations of election law being sent from the State Election Board to the attorney general or local prosecutors, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement Thursday.

The New Georgia Project, which bills itself as a nonpartisan effort to register voters, is accused of submitting 1,268 voter registration applications after the 10-day deadline to do so. The missed deadline caused voters to be disenfranchised in the March 19, 2019, special election, according to Raffensperger‘s statement.

Warnock was listed as the CEO for the New Georgia Project at the time, but the organization says his actual position was chairman of its board. He resigned from that post on Jan. 28, 2020.

Warnock and the New Georgia Project didn’t immediately respond to the newspaper’s request for comment.

The New Georgia Project was founded by Democrat Stacey Abrams in 2014.

Also among the cases being referred to prosecutors, some of which date back several years: Four instances of felons voting or registering to vote; four cases of non-citizens voting or registering to vote; and one case of misplaced ballots during the 2020 general election, which didn’t change the outcome, Raffensperger said in a statement.

“Election fraud is not tolerated in Georgia. When there is evidence of it, the people responsible face prosecution,” said Raffensperger, chairman of the five-member election board.

Now if they will take the evidence and prosecute the officials of the New Georgia Project.

There was plenty of evidence provided showing the November 3rd election was corrupt but the Secretary of State (SOS), Attorney General, Governor, or Supreme Court did not take action. Also the SOS and Governor got the Dominion Voting System and the voting by mail without approval by the State Legislature, which is required by the US Constitution. This shows that what was done for Nov 3rd and later Dec 5th Senate runoff was not legal, but nothing was done about it when it was taken to court. This will go nowhere.
