From Fox News: A group in Georgia is applying pressure to the state’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to release the results of a voter roll audit he announced over the summer.
“Millions of illegal immigrants have flooded our country since 2021, and it’s well-documented that thousands of them have successfully registered to vote in multiple states. But even with early voting now underway, Georgia voters are still waiting for confirmation that non-citizens are not casting ballots in our elections,” former Sen. Kelly Loeffler, who now serves as the chairwoman for the group behind the effort, Greater Georgia, said in a release obtained exclusively by Fox News Digital.
The comments come more than three months after Raffensperger announced the state was conducting a “SAVE audit” of noncitizens who may have registered to vote, which he called a “vital step in maintaining election security and integrity in Georgia.”
“We are double-checking to make sure that if any non-citizens attempt to register to vote, they will not be able to vote unless they prove that they are U.S. citizens,” Raffensberger said in a release at the time, which also warned of prison sentences of up to 10 years and fines of up to $100,000 for noncitizens who register to vote in the state.
A few weeks later, Raffensperger declared in an interview with NewsNation that the audit was complete and said he could promise that “only American citizens are voting.”
Loeffler then called on Raffensperger to immediately release the results of the Georgia audit, but so far, he has not done so.
Last week, Raffensperger announced on social media, “In Georgia, we’ve made voting a breeze. All forms of voting are secured by Photo ID, so you know that your vote is protected & that only American citizens are casting a ballot.”
