Democrats sue Governor Kemp to force him to investigate three members of the state election board

Democrats announced that they have filed a lawsuit against Governor Brian Kemp in an effort to force the governor to act on an ethics complaint they filed earlier against three members of the State Election Board. On today’s episode of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, Fulton County Election Board chair Cathy Woolard, who filed the complaint, joins us to talk about the suit.   Then, A.M.E. Bishop Reginald Jackson, who has overseen 500 A.M.E. churches in Georgia has been a leader in registering and turning out to the polls Black voters across the state. He’s now been assigned to a new A.M.E. district and joins the podcast to discuss how mobilization of Black voters in the state will move forward without his leadership.   And later, National Weather Service meteorologist David Nadler gives the latest updates on Hurricane Helene as it bears down on much of Georgia.     Links to today’s topics:  Democrats sue Governor Kemp demanding investigation of state election board Complaint asks Kemp to dismiss three election board members Patricia Murphy: Who's in charge of state election board?
