It's A GTFO Election
Fulton’s 2020 vote issues: what’s smoke, what’s fire
Marilyn Marks, Coalition for Good Governance on why Fulton vote data in the SEB's and DOJ's hands could spell bad news for Raffensperger & Sterling
A purposely misleading headline and article set off a weekend firestorm in Georgia politics, with insinuations that 315,000 Fulton County votes from 2020 were improperly counted. Ron and his guest, executive director of the Coalition for Good Governance cut through the noise. Long story short, the claims of illegality are nonsense. Even worse, the so-called missing signatures are sought to certify votes in accordance with Canadian law. Not even kidding.
Marilyn also walked Ron through the process for vote tabulation, why those ballots were always valid, and how bad faith actors are using confusion to distract from real election administration problems that still need fixing before 2026, and how circling vultures on the state elections board and Trump Department of Justice may expose Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

CBS News legal analyst Thane Rosenbaum joined Ron in hour two to help bring some clarity to the muddy mess that is the (somewhat) release of the Epstein Files.
