#Georgia contests the application of #FOIA Exemption 5 concerning communication between #DOJ and outside groups suing to halt Georgia's Election Integrity Act of 2021 #SB202
Judge decides for Georgia, rejecting DOJ defenses that Klamath (2001) protects litigation strategy communications under a “consultant corollary” rule or that the DOJ demonstrated the outside groups/lawyers were “enough like the agency’s own personnel to justify calling their communications ‘intra-agency?’”

Record turn-out in #Georgia? There was a record COLLAPSE from 4.48 million in the 2021 #runoff to 3.54 million this year. #Warnock’s vote in Fulton (Atlanta) plummeted by 74,000 votes. Let’s cut the BS—#BrianKemp’s #SB202 Jim Crow’d this election. https://www.gregpalast.com/warnock-this-is-voter-suppression-pure-and-simple/

2 weeks ago I asked @staceyabrams@twitter.com what she'd say to Kemp if he signed anti-voting bills: "people will not forget the leadership that stole their votes"
