Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has become the full-time scapegoat for former President Donald Trump and the Georgia GOP, who all falsely claim the secretary of state somehow stood by while the 2020 elections were rigged against Trump.

But Raffensperger was in friendly territory Tuesday when he spoke to the Rotary Club of Gwinnett County, where he confirmed again that he’s running for reelection in 2022.

He’s got an uphill battle ahead of him, with a primary challenge from U.S. Rep. Jody Hice, who has joined Trump in false claims about the 2020 elections, and state Rep. Bee Nguyen, a rising Democratic star, in the race, too. Two other Republicans - David Belle Isle and T.J. Hudson - are also running.

Raffensperger, a Republican engineer from Johns Creek, was introduced by Gwinnett-based journalist Elliott Brack as “the most famous secretary of state in the country, no, the world.”

He’s desperately trying to stay in office to cover for his traitorous misdeeds. This is excellent news in that it will give the Cleaver the satisfaction of casting a primary vote against him.

Sure. They’re so factual that Dems are stalling audits in states. If they’re facts there would be no need for stalling.

Not only is the AJC falsity statement non-factual, it is a bald-faced lie.

The Secretary of State did not just stand by while the 2020 elections were rigged against Trump, though. He aided in the process, and broke the law doing it.

Saying it's false, doesn't make it false. How about just saying "claims" of fraud, or unverified at this point claims of fraud.

I can not wait to vote against that arse fricker.

However, we have got to get rid of dominion electronic systems if we want our votes to count.

Are they saying they're false claims because Trump didn't say it? Or, are they saying false claims because they have evidence it's false?

All he did was his job. If you consider yourself a conservative and live in Georgia, you should vote for him in the general (or whoever wins the R primary).

Brad Raffensperger is worth 20 to 25 million dollars after he sold some type of IT company years ago. He probably has even more money now after the 2020 election mess. He doesn't care if he wins or loses.
