My lawyer had to threaten #Georgia Secretary of State #BrianKemp with a lawsuit to force him to turn over the names of over half a million voters whose citizenship rights he quietly extinguished. gregpalast.com/gops-brian-kem…
My database expert went through #BrianKemp's #Georgia Purge List name by name and found:
1 Thousands who supposedly left the state but remain in Georgia
2 Thousands who moved from one end of town to another
3 Someone who moved from one apartment to another in the same building

Don’t assume you’re OK because you’ve not moved and have voted in the same place for years. States have been conducting deep purges, and many perfectly valid voter registrations have disappeared — often without notice. rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
For example, in #Georgia in 2017, GOP Secretary of State #BrianKemp removed 591,000 voters from the rolls—that’s 1 in 10 registrations in a single year!

Rather than face me in court, #Georgia Secretary of State #BrianKemp coughed up the first and last names and addresses of every one of the 591,000 voters he purged from the rolls in 2017. Notably, however, he left out the voter’s middle names. How curious. gregpalast.com/why-i-am-suing…
#BrianKemp also refused — despite the requirements of transparency in the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 — to state in detail WHY he’s purged each of the monstrously large number of #Georgia voters. gregpalast.com/why-i-am-suing… #StopTheSteal
Therefore, I have come to Atlanta to join with co-plaintiffs from @RPCoalition, @NationalSCLC, @GAPeoplesAgenda & @NewGAProject to give #BrianKemp a final warning: Put these purged voters back before the election or see us in federal court. gregpalast.com/georgia-civil-… #StopTheSteal

Huge ruling in litigation challenging #Georgia’s vulnerable, paperless election system. bit.ly/2OyWzi3 1/
Court declined to require paper ballots for this November, but found “with a measure of true caution” that Plaintiffs are likely to succeed on the merits. 2/
“Plaintiffs have shown that their Fourteenth Amendment rights to Due Process and Equal Protection have been burdened” by GA’s vulnerable system. 3/
This was such a good conversation I didn't want to stop talking. Thanks @davidlparsons!

Also: learned something abt myself doing this interview bc it was over the phone & not on a computer.
I ❤️ed it bc I'm so ADD that my thoughts race way ahead of what I can say & I often get lost in them. But here I moved around constantly. Walking meditation.🧘

Though officials backed down and didn't go through with a proposal to close 7 out of the 9 polling places in the majority Black #RandolphCounty, I warned you not to celebrate victory against #JimCrow poll closures in #Georgia. edition.cnn.com/2018/08/24/us/…
"County election officials have closed 214 precincts across the state since 2012," The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. "That figure means nearly 8 percent of the state’s polling places... have shut their doors over the past six years." politics.myajc.com/news/state--re… #Georgia
I reported on these poll closures in #Georgia for @DemocracyNow in 2017. Glad to see the AJC is finally catching up! gregpalast.com/democracy-now-…
I am so grateful for donations. #Kobach’s stone wall is expensive to climb. And we also have to fly the whole crew to Atlanta on the #BrianKemp hunt. gregpalast.com/im-in-wichita-… #StopTheSteal
Thanks to @StaceyAbrams for showing me another purge trick she spied by viewing the files — removing voters because they’ve moved *INTO* #Georgia!!!
And thanks to our researcher and cameraman @zdroberts for sweet-talking a Kemp flunky into turning over #Georgia's secret #Crosscheck list :) projects.aljazeera.com/2014/double-vo…

With the pro bono help of the firm of Mirer Mazzocchi & Julien, we are filing under the National Voter Registration Act to get the names of every one of the million voters purged from voter rolls using #KrisKobach’s infamous #Crosscheck program. gregpalast.com/im-in-wichita-…
We’ve sent legal notices to all 27 states in #KrisKobach’s #Crosscheck program to turn over their lists. While #Kobach has stonewalled us, a number of states including #Michigan and #Oklahoma, have turned over their hit lists rather than face us in court. gregpalast.com/im-in-wichita-…

A lot of folks are calling for paper ballots, but it doesn’t help you to have paper ballots if you’re not allowed to vote. gregpalast.com/lets-not-celeb…
If you’re in #Georgia or #Ohio or any Republican controlled state, go to your Secretary of State’s website and make sure you’re still registered. #StopTheSteal
It doesn’t matter if you’ve voted 20 times in the same place, check your registration. And if you've been purged RE-REGISTER ONLINE. Don’t do it on paper. In Georgia, 40,000 people registered on pieces of paper and those papers just vanished! gregpalast.com/why-are-millio… #StopTheSteal

2.) - make any sense whatsoever - not with what I'd seen on the ground as a canvasser, not with the number of Democrats I saw streaming into my polling place when I was a poll watcher. I'm not an election integrity expert, but I, like many other Ossoff supporters, were thrilled -
3.) when @MarilynRMarks1 filed a lawsuit challenging the results. And then a few days later #BrianKemp wiped the server clean of data. So many people sacrificed so much during that campaign for someone to be our voice in the House, and now we couldn't even contest the results.
Yesterday, the GOP’s #BrianKemp won the #Georgia gubernatorial primary. It is not coincidental that, as Secretary of State, he removed 591,548 names from the state’s voter rolls in 2017. We expect another big purge in the next few weeks. gregpalast.com/georgias-brian… #StopTheSteal
We've given #Georgia's Secretary of State, #BrianKemp, 40 days to provide every name of those purged—or he will face a federal lawsuit. Our initial investigation indicates the list is overloaded with voters of color and young voters, i.e. Democrats. gregpalast.com/palast-testifi…
#BrianKemp will face #StaceyAbrams in November for the governor’s seat. Abrams told me she fears this ethnic cleansing of voter rolls especially because it is partly directed by #KrisKobach of Kansas. gregpalast.com/georgias-brian… #Georgia #StopTheSteal
