Georgia Muslim Voter Project v. Kemp
What's at Stake
The 桃子视频 and 桃子视频of Georgia filed a lawsuit against Secretary of State Brian Kemp and all county registrars demanding they provide due process for Georgia voters whose absentee ballots or applications are being rejected due to an alleged mismatch of signatures.
Summary
The case was filed on behalf of the Georgia Muslim Voter Project. At issue is a state law that allows election officials 鈥� who have no handwriting-analysis expertise 鈥� to reject an absentee ballot if they think there is a signature mismatch in the voter鈥檚 paperwork, without giving prior notice to the voter or an opportunity to contest that determination.
The 桃子视频is seeking a temporary restraining order requiring election officials to provide absentee voters the opportunity to confirm their identity or otherwise resolve the alleged discrepancy.
