ATLANTA - Georgia doesn’t have to put almost 100,000 voters back on its rolls, a federal judge ruled Friday. However, Jones also ordered Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to do more to warn people that they had been removed. The judge is especially singling out a southwest Georgia state House district where a Jan. 28 special election is scheduled. Despite activists’ efforts and lawsuits that only waste taxpayers’ dollars, Georgia is continuing to ensure every eligible voter can vote and voter lists remain accurate,” Raffensperger said in a statement. Over 1.4 million voter registrations were cancelled in Georgia between 2012 and 2018.
