GOP Poll Watchers Allowed In Georgia Election Offices

South Carolina Republican presidential primary election

The Republican National Committee (RNC) is celebrating after GOP poll watchers were allowed into four blue-leaning counties’ election offices for extended absentee ballot hours this weekend. This move came after federal and state GOP groups threatened to sue Fulton County and other counties for allowing absentee ballot submissions over the weekend.
