Republicans on Thursday appealed a Georgia judge’s ruling from earlier this week, which declared seven election rules recently passed by Georgia’s State Election Board to be unconstitutional.
In a petition, the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the Georgia Republican Party asked a higher state court to overturn a ruling by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox, who on Wednesday stated that the State Election Board did not have the authority to pass the rules and ordered it to immediately inform all state and local election officials that the rules are void.
