Federal judge blocks effort to invalidate parts of new Georgia voting law ahead of July runoffs
CNN
A federal court judge on Wednesday denied a motion to stop the implementation of parts of Georgia's new voting law, ahead of state legislature runoff elections next week.
In the ruling, US District Judge J. P. Boulee declined to block parts of SB202, saying the timing of the request presents a problem with runoff elections already ongoing and would change rules for elections that are already underway. The runoffs for two Georgia House seats are set for July 13. The motion went on to say the filing came three months after SB202 had become law.More Related News
