A Fulton County Superior Court Judge ruled on Tuesday that election officials are required to certify the vote counts in the upcoming election, even if they have concerns about potential fraud or errors.
The judge said any fraud disputes should be settled in court.
Of course, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has made it clear that any lawyer who challenges vote fraud and abuse will be indicted and disbarred.
“If election superintendents were, as Plaintiff urges, free to play investigator, prosecutor, jury, and judge and so — because of a unilateral determination of error or fraud — refuse to certify election results, Georgia voters would be silenced. Our Constitution and our Election Code do not allow for that to happen,” Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney said in his order, according to NBC News.
A Republican member of the Fulton County board argued in court that she is obligated to refuse certification of the election results if she believes there is evidence of fraud or errors.
The judge disagreed and ruled against her.
