A recent federal district court ruling is a huge win for election integrity. Did you know that Georgia has repeatedly admitted to residency requirement violations in their elections?
From The Federalist. Election integrity advocates recently had a very important win when a federal district court ruled that challenging the eligibility of thousands of voters in Georgia did not constitute “voter intimidation.”

Give today.
Back in 2020, True the Vote, Derek Somerville and I, and three other activists were all sued by Stacey Abrams’ Fair Fight organization for allegedly violating the Prohibited Acts section of the Voting Rights Act. …
When the judge ruled in favor of all the defendants in the case and found that there had “not been any violation of Section 11(b) of the Voting Rights Act by any of the named Defendants,” we got to experience “the thrill of victory.” …
While it certainly felt great to finally be exonerated, what exactly did we “win”? …
Once upon a time, the following language served to summarize portions of Georgia’s residency laws on our secretary of state’s voter registration web page:
If you move outside the county in which you are registered to vote in excess of 30 days prior to an election, you have lost your eligibility to vote in the county of your old residence. You must register to vote in your new county of residence. You will be assigned a new voting precinct and polling location. Remember, if you don’t register to vote by the deadline, you cannot vote in that particular election.
You can still see it for yourself in “The Wayback Machine” if you give it time to load.
I wonder why that page vanished?
In fact, I asked Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, as well as his chief operating officer Gabe Sterling and his general counsel Ryan Germany, about that in an email back in June 2022, but they still haven’t gotten back to me. I wonder why that is?
Well, now I know. So let me tell you the story of “Exhibit 61.”
In May 2021, I gave nearly 35,000 voter records to our secretary of state for an investigation into votes cast in the 2020 general election with residency issues, which his office had already agreed to open. The analysis of the voter data I had done on or about Nov. 25, 2020, indicated those voters had filed changes of address to an address in a different county more than 30 days before the election, but they had apparently failed to re-register there and wound up casting ballots in their previous counties. …
Following that election, more than a third of those voters finally got around to updating their driver’s licenses and/or voter registrations to the exact same addresses they told the U.S. Postal Service they were moving to well before the election. When they did so, they basically provided corroborating evidence that the change of address information they gave the USPS was accurate. …
Now, let’s fast forward to the Fair Fight v. True the Vote case. One day, our attorneys asked me about “Exhibit 61,” which turned out to be an email Fair Fight obtained from our secretary of state through an open records request.
That email contained a “legal analysis” that Raffensperger’s general counsel Ryan Germany had completed for Factcheck.org, which I was previously unaware of, that attempted to discredit my analysis of the voter data I had sent to them to investigate. …
In the email, Germany, like our secretary of state, seems to like to argue that the residency issues we have are caused by the 1993 National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), and there’s not much they can do about them. … The NVRA is certainly a major contributing factor to our underlying list maintenance issues, but it also does not require or implicitly permit voters to lie about where they live when they go to vote. …
Then he also seemed to argue that under our own state law, Georgia Code § 21-2-224, we must allow voters to cast ballots where they are registered, apparently even if they have moved permanently to a new county but failed to re-register there, and their votes would then be cast in violation of both state and federal law. …
So now let me just sum this up for you. The evidence is clear, and it shows we likely had thousands of unlawful votes cast in the 2020 election. Those same issues also happened again in the 2021 Senate runoff, again in the 2022 general election, and will no doubt happen again in the 2024 general election because nothing has been done about them.
Our secretary of state and his staff have repeatedly admitted that these residency violations do occur. They admitted in that now-infamous phone call with President Trump that they were “going through” the lists of potential residency violations, but as you can see in the transcript, they wouldn’t put a number on them, although the Trump attorneys had asked several times for one.
So after painting themselves into quite a corner, what did they decide to do when they realized they couldn’t dispute the evidence or admit Trump and his attorneys were right? They apparently decided to dispute the law itself instead. …
Understand, I am not arguing for felony prosecutions of thousands of Georgia voters, but we cannot fix a problem unless we admit we have a problem. …
As we draw closer to the primaries and the general election, share this article to encourage others to pray for election integrity!

Lord, bring us back to being a people that honor the laws as they have been legally passed. Root out the wickedness in high places and deliver us from lawlessness. in your Holy Name.
Your VOTE is tied to your 1st Amendment sacred right to express yourself and place a check against your government. The consent of the governed is Sovereign in God’s NATION!
This is unlikely to be election fraud. Afterall, quitting your job, and in some cases paying a real estate agent thousands of dollars to sell your house, paying hundreds if not thousands of dollars to move your furniture and even more money to paint a new home is a little extreme and something most people can’t afford to do. The chances are that most of these people were caught up in the chaos of moving and then realized that they wanted to vote in the election. The chances are that most of these votes were for Trump. That is actually a small number of people given the total population we are talking about.
Father, in the name of Jesus, who’s righteousnessand finished sacrafice alone enables me to stand before you boldly, i ask how can we trust a government system that enforces law on most common citizens but has exceptions and doesnt obey laws itself. We have seen so much of this with the 2020 elections and the current administration’s failure to enforce border and immigration laws, our own current president is being accused of participating in illegal business deals and activities that have compromised his professed political commitment to America, endangered American security and contributed to unrest and discord worldwide. Father, deliver us from these types of lawless politicians and activities and all who support and promote them. We look to you alone, Jesus triumphed over the principalities and powers and made an open show of them. Please manifest that once for all victory in our day we ask and trust you to do it because you instructed us to ask knowing you honor your word . Thank you.
Colossians 2:15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
YES, YES, YES! The Ĺord God Almighty is always in control 🙏! Continue to do his will and give him the glory!!
Psalm 36:5 Your loving devotion, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the clouds.
Psalm 103:11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His loving devotion for those who fear Him.
Isaiah 55:9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.
Jeremiah 9:24 “…But the one who boasts should boast in this, that he understands and knows Me— that I am Yahweh, showing faithful love, justice, and righteousness on the earth, for I delight in these things. This is the LORD’s declaration.
Dear Lord and Almighty God, because we adore You and fear Your Holy Name, You are faithful to us, beyond measure. I am praying this great nation will delight in Your delight; justice and righteousness in our upcoming elections. I pray we ALL take the opportunity to boast in You, as we pray for election results that will be what Americans so desperately need and not what we deserve. I love You Father. I love You Jesus. I love You Holy Spirit. Amen
This just means that the registration can legally be challenged. People being behind in changing their registration after moving is not a surprise. Generally, it is not at the top of a to-do list when someone moves, and, in fact, the window should probably be broadened to something like 60 to 90 days. The change in driver’s license, which is even more important, happening after that window is evidence of that.
It is an unknown as to whether these votes were for or against Donald Trump. This may actually have been to his advantage.
This is indeed a positive thing. It shows how far our nation has fallen.; this is a shame, plain and simple. Lord Jesus, please restore integrity where the upcoming primaries and election are concerned. We trust in Your goodness and justice. Thank you, Jesus.
O praising You Lord and thanking You
