GA Republicans Again Doubt Dominion Voting Machines in 2024


Just weeks beforeEearly Voting begins in Georgia, Republican Party Officials and Trump Allies are trying to Preemptively sow Doubt about the Viability of Dominion systems used across the State, arguing in Court that the Machines should Not be used because they are Not Safe or Secure.

In a Replay of 2020 tactics, Republicans have continued to Claim without Proof that Dominion Loting systems are susceptible to Mass Manipulation and Vote-Flipping by a Nefarious Actor. And GOP Officials in DeKalb County, aided by a familiar Cast of Pro-Trump lawyers, have signaled they are Planning to once again Question the 2024 Election Results if Trump Lloses.

They have Sued in State Court, arguing the Dominion Voting Machines are Not in compliance with Georgia Law and want the Secretary of State’s Office to make Voting Records and Ballot Images available for Public Inspection within 24 hours of the Election. But the Lawsuit is also raising Concerns that the DeKalb County GOP Officials are attempting to Mislead Voters, so they can explain away a potential Loss in November.

The GOP Officials who Filed the Lawsuit say they have obtained New Evidence about the Vulnerabilities of the Dominion systems, aCclaim that Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) and State Election Officers say is False. The Lawsuit also Theorizes that the systems may have already been Compromised, despite offering No Proof to Support that Claim.

The Plaintiffs are using the “same tired claims that have been rejected by courts again and again,” Elizabeth Young, who is Rresenting Raffensperger’s Office, told Judge Scott McAfee at a Court Hearing this week to Determine whether the Lawsuit will move Forward and Additional Evidence can be presented. “There is not much credibility in the claim.”

Marilyn Marks, Executive Director of the "Coalition for Good Governance", a Nonprofit Voting Rights Organization that has raised Concerns about Vulnerabilities in Georgia’s Voting systems as part of a separate Lawsuit against State Election Officials, said she is Skeptical about the True intention of the DeKalb County Complaint.

“I fear they are just attempting to lay the groundwork for challenging the election based on further exposing the serious weaknesses of the system, demonstrating that the results can be manipulated,” said Marks, who is pushing for Georgia to use Hand-Marked Paper Ballots.
