Stealing Georgia: Raffensper­ger is No Hero

-

Despite the hype, an investigat­ive report we released reveals Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensper­ger is no hero defending democracy from Trump.

Rather, in this investigat­ive film (produced by George DiCaprio, Thom Hartmann and Rosario Dawson, and narrated by Debra Messing), Raffensper­ger is exposed for using vote suppressio­n Jim Crow tactics — even misleading a federal court to keep 198,000 Georgians from voting in

Tuesday’s Senate run-off.

The report centers on the lawsuit by Black Voters Matter, Rainbow PUSH and other voting rights groups to return these voters to the rolls in time for the election. It is based on our investigat­ion released by the ACLU of Georgia.

In the film, we see that the Secretary of State literally shut and locked his office in the State Capitol to avoid complying with a federal judge’s directive to meet with me, Black Voters Matter and their legal team to return voters before the runoff election.

We hunt down and confront Raffenperg­er’s Director of Elections with evidence of Black and Hispanic voters illegally blocked from voting — and hand him a list of 198,000 Georgians wrongfully purged from the voter rolls (including, infamously, Martin Luther King’s 94-year-old cousin, Christine Jordan).

This is the verifiable response to the Trump campaign’s claims of “voter fraud” that he has been pandering on Twitter? You can always count on Don to accuse his “enemies” of that which he is guilty himself.

Thanks for the update
