Election integrity group sues Fulton County, Georgia under new constitutional amendment

AMHERST, Va., Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The Amistad Project of the non-partisan Thomas More Society, an election integrity watchdog group, has filed litigation challenging Fulton County’s use of private monies to conduct election operations in both the 2020 general election and the January 5 Senate runoff elections.

The lawsuit takes advantage of a new constitutional amendment that waives sovereign immunity for local government…

The lawsuit takes advantage of a new constitutional amendment that waives sovereign immunity for local government entities in Georgia, which came into effect January 1.

The Amistad Project alleges that Fulton County illegally accepted over $10 million from a leftist organization called the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), which is funded by $350 million from Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. The lawsuit also contends that the terms of the grants that Fulton County accepted further violated the law by giving votes cast in Fulton County an unfair advantage over votes cast in other parts of the state.

«The sanctity of our electoral process is being violated by the unprecedented infusion of private money,» said Phill Kline, director of the Amistad Project. «Instead of being distributed equally, as the law requires, election funding is now being doled out by private interests seeking to influence the process for partisan advantage.»

The money Fulton County has accepted from CTCL is nearly equal to the amount the county received from public sources for the 2020 general election, and the Zuckerberg/CTCL money comes with significant strings attached. As has been detailed in other lawsuits filed all over the country, CTCL grants dictate details such as the number of polling places and absentee ballot drop boxes in recipient jurisdictions, and come with «clawback» provisions entitling CTCL to recoup the money if it is not spent in strict accordance with the group’s mandates.

According to the Amistad Project’s lawsuit, the CTCL money has also been used to facilitate illegal «curing» of flawed ballots while partisan election observers are being prevented from meaningfully observing the process.

«Mark Zuckerberg and CTCL have created a two-tiered election system that benefits left-leaning urban areas at the expense of more-conservative parts of critical battleground states, skewing the results of our elections in favor of one political party,» Kline said. «Public elections are supposed to be just that — public — and we are asking the courts to restore order and enforce the law.»

Georgia Flipping, Texas Nearing in Presidential Election Shows Democrat South May Rise Again

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — When Democratic President Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas signed the 1964 Civil Rights Law, he scrawled away Democratic Southern support that turned Republican.

But Democratic President-elect Joe Biden, making a serious bid to flip Texas in November, and Georgia doing so for the first time…

But Democratic President-elect Joe Biden, making a serious bid to flip Texas in November, and Georgia doing so for the first time in more than 25 years, signals: Bubba, this ain’t your south anymore.

Ken Herman, Pulitzer prize-winning columnist for the Austin American-Statesman told the Retail Politics Podcast with Gerry Shields on Sunday that Texas changing back to Democratic blue is inevitable.

The influx of Hispanic voters and California Democrats guarantees the flip, Herman said.

«It’s a state of great diversity,» Herman said. «Eventually, this will become a blue state.»

Control of the U.S. Senate dangles in the South Tuesday in Georgia’s runoff election. The chamber currently holds 48 Democrats and 50 Republicans. If Democrat Senate candidates follow Biden in winning the state, the chamber will be tied at 50 with Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris as the tie-breaking vote.

The race has attracted more than half a billion dollars in campaign spending from across the country, support that should be banned, Herman said.

«I should not be allowed to give money to impact who represents the state of Montana in the U.S. Senate,» he said. «It just seems wrong.»

Khaled Salem, U.S. Senate Candidate, Urges Incoming Biden Administration to Spearhead Legislation Favoring Immigrant Investors and Entrepreneurs

NEW YORK, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Khaled Salem, who is running for the U.S. Senate in New York in 2022, today announced that he is urging the incoming Biden administration to spearhead new legislation that will make it easier for immigrant investors and entrepreneurs to become residents, and then citizens of the United Sates. Khaled is advocating for this change because he believes that immigrant entrepreneurs can contribute to job growth and economic expansion…

«The start of a new year is a great time to think about new ideas,» said Khaled. «A lot of people have been preoccupied with a difficult year, but it’s time to look ahead and find solutions rather than dwell on problems. New York has long been the cradle of economic innovation and growth in the USA. We can once again lead the way to a better life for all Americans.»

As Khaled noted, immigrants with capital comprise a unique growth engine for the economy. They typically arrive in the US with skills and ideas—as well as the financing they need to get things started. They have to succeed. That’s a powerful motivator for action. Plus, immigrants can often see opportunities in markets that elude incumbent industries. This has been proven repeatedly in recent years. «It’s time for the immigration law to adapt to the new reality: The economy favors entrepreneurs over middle-class immigrants,» Khaled added. «Everyone is welcome, but we should not make it difficult for entrepreneurs to come to this country and work their magic.»

Khaled also reaffirmed his commitment to passing new laws to protect dual American citizens from discrimination and inequality in American embassies. He is asking the United States Department of State to make the place of birth optional on U.S. passports to protect dual citizens abroad from discrimination in international Airports around the world. He also advocates for free university education for Americans, a move he believes will contribute to shared prosperity throughout New York and the country at large.

To build his base of support in his run against Chuck Schumer, Khaled has reached out to NY State’s diverse electorate, with appeals for unity among African American, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Asian-Americans, Latinos and others. Khaled is forging an alliance of multiple groups that represent the broad range of communities in the state.
