Attorney Lin Wood on Dec. 18 filed a lawsuit against the Georgia secretary of state, alleging that the administration of the U.S. Senate runoff elections in the Peach State violates state election laws and the U.S. Constitution.
Wood is calling on the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Georgia to order election officials to conduct voter signature and identity verification in accordance with state law rather than the directives of election officials. The lawsuit also challenges election procedures related to how, when, and where absentee ballots are delivered and opened.
