Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is referring 17 case files to district attorneys related to individuals suspected of voting twice in the 2022 General Election.
These individuals are suspected of voting once in Georgia as well as casting an additional ballot in the 2022 General Election in another state. District Attorneys will evaluate these case files and pursue indictments where appropriate.
These allegations were brought forth due to Georgia’s membership in the Electronic Registration Information Center, also known as ERIC. This network of 24 states and the District of Columbia shares interstate data to improve the quality of election administration by promoting accurate voter rolls and identifying illegal voting. ERIC is the best large-scale tool available to identify illegal voting across states.
“One illegal vote cast is too many,” Raffensperger said. “Georgians deserve to have their voice heard fully, not have it diluted by bad actors.”
The cases of double voting involve records from Barrow, Chatham, Cobb, Douglas, Fannin, Forsyth, Fulton, Morgan, and Tift counties who are believed to have cast a ballot in another state.
