ATLANTA — The Democratic National Committee along with the Democratic Party of Georgia and several individuals including county board members sued the Georgia State Election Board on Monday over new election rules that critics say conflict with state law mandating certification of election results. At the heart of the civil suit, filed in Fulton County, are two items passed by the election board this month: the reasonable inquiry rule and the examination rule.
Critics say that could throw Georgia’s election into chaos because “reasonable inquiry” isn’t defined, allowing an individual board member to block certification for any reason. Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, is among those critics, calling the new rules eleventh hour 'chaos.
