WASHINGTON,
D.C. –
Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Joe Gruters released the following
statement after the RNC helped secure another court victory defending Georgia’s
election integrity law, SB 202.
“This is
another win for Georgia’s election law and Peach State voters,” said RNC
Chairman Joe Gruters. “The RNC has been helping defend
SB 202 against the far-left’s lies and lawsuits for more than five years.
Democrats’ smears of this commonsense law have been proven completely false,
and the RNC is ready to keep fighting as long as it takes to defend SB 202
against these far-left attacks.”
Background:
- Today, the RNC
helped secure
a win in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District
of Georgia by successfully defending Georgia’s election law, SB 202.
- The RNC intervened
to support the law against Democrat challenges targeting SB 202’s “Food,
Drink, and Gift Ban,” which prohibits campaigns and third parties from
providing food, drinks, money, or gifts to voters waiting in line near
polling places.
- In January,
Democrats again sought to block the rules, but the court denied their
request.
- SB 202 remains in effect while the case continues, as the RNC has consistently intervened to defend the law and support Georgia’s election
integrity measures.
