Voting Rights Groups Fight Against Fulton County Voter Purge

Release:

The Georgia NAACP and the Georgia Coalition for the People’s Agenda are moving to stop 14,000 voters from being purged from the rolls before November’s general election, after a lawsuit was filed by two Fulton County voters which seeks to force the Fulton County Election Board to convene challenge hearings and purge the voters. The Georgia NAACP’s and Georgia Coalition’s motion to dismiss, which was filed today, asserts that the voter purges requested by the lawsuit would violate both state law and the National Voter Registration Act, and that the lawsuit must therefore be dismissed immediately.
