Judge Rejects GOP's Georgia Election Challenge as Baseless
A federal judge in Georgia, R. Stan Baker, rejected a last-minute attempt by the Republican National Committee to invalidate absentee ballots from Democratic-leaning counties, calling the effort dishonest and based on misinterpretations of state law. The judge criticized the RNC's claims as lacking factual support and warned against undermining public confidence in elections. The case was seen as an attempt to influence the election outcome by targeting specific counties based on political affiliation.
