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.
Republicans accused Fulton County of not allowing any public observers into the locations open on the weekends, which they argued was against Georgia's election observer laws. However, following their efforts, poll watchers have now been granted access in all four Georgia counties.
