The #StateElectionBoard exceeded its authority by passing new voting rules last year, the #GeorgiaSupremeCourt unanimously ruled Tuesday, limiting the #Republican-led board’s power.

We just filed an #AmicusBrief saying Judge #Cannon should be reassigned from the #Trump #ClassifiedDocuments case.

#Republican commissioners hold a veto over the #FEC's enforcement and have repeatedly used it to shoot down any recommended enforcement of campaign finance law against #DonaldTrump.
