Explore the esca­lat­ing ten­sions with­in the Geor­gia Repub­li­can Par­ty led by Josh McK­oon. With GOP nom­i­nees Jason Fra­zier and Julie Adams, known for elec­tion skep­ti­cism, reject­ed by Ful­ton Coun­ty’s Demo­c­rat-led com­mis­sion, a law­suit chal­lenges the coun­ty’s author­i­ty to deny par­ty nom­i­na­tions. This bat­tle over elec­tion integri­ty, root­ed in a 2024 law change end­ing pro­bate judge over­sight, high­lights deep divi­sions and accu­sa­tions of vot­er sup­pres­sion tac­tics. Dis­cov­er why these coun­ty elec­tion boards are at the heart of Geor­gia’s polit­i­cal firestorm

  • Pow­er mad: why a far right Geor­gia gop fac­tion is splin­ter­ing. Josh has done all he could to put peo­ple in dif­fer­ent groups. There is zero effort to uni­fy. 
  • We knew they would do all they could to steal the elec­tion in 2020. It is very impor­tant espe­cial­ly in Ful­ton and DeKalb coun­ty that our elec­tions are han­dled by the coun­ties. Now in Geor­gia each coun­ty has an elec­tion board. When they wrote the law end­ing the pro­bate judge no longer run­ning the elec­tions in the 15 coun­ties, the com­mis­sion­ers could deny the par­ty nom­i­na­tions for the elec­tion board. The argu­ment will come up that we can­not have dif­fer­ent laws gov­ern­ing the elec­tions in the coun­ties. 
  • Josh McK­oon brags about the elec­tion integri­ty chal­lenges that have been met. One thing that we have not done in the last two years is secure our coun­ty board of elec­tions… mean­ing 2 repub­li­cans, 2 democ­rats and a mem­ber appoint­ed by the com­mis­sion­er. This will be chal­lenged by Ful­ton, DeKalb and Cobb coun­ties. We know that the Ful­ton Coun­ty repub­li­can par­ty put up 2 nom­i­nees. Ful­ton coun­ty has a 5 mem­ber board. The repub­li­can par­ty pushed for elec­tion skep­tics to over­see Atlanta area vot­ing, that would be Jason Frasi­er and Julie Adams.  Julie chose not to cer­ti­fy an elec­tion, that start­ed a firestorm and cre­at­ed a rule that went to court. Jason has chal­lenged vot­ing in Ful­ton coun­ty. The demo­c­rat con­trolled Ful­ton Coun­ty com­mis­sion in May vot­ing along par­ty lines to reject the GOP s nom­i­nees. That led the GA repub­li­can par­ty to sue ear­li­er this month con­tend­ing the com­mis­sion is required to accept the party’s choic­es. We will see if the court will back up and get these two on the board. It will be a tall order because of the new law that was changed on pro­bate judges. We should have been fight­ing the issue then.
