Appeal and Reaction
Republicans challenge a Georgia judge's ruling that seven State Election Board rules are "illegal, unconstitutional, and void," with the RNC and appealing the decision.
RNC Chairman criticizes the ruling as judicial activism, claiming it undermines election integrity and transparency.
Legal and Political Context
The lawsuit, led by former Republican state Rep. Scot Turner, argued the State Election Board overstepped its authority, leading to the judge's decision.
Critics, including Democrats and voting rights groups, argue the rules could be used to dispute election results, especially if Trump allies contest a loss.
