Georgia s top elections official defended the 2020 results. Now he s defending the state s new voting law. By Caroline Linton Georgia secretary of state on voting law Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who was pressured by President Trump to change the election results in his state in the 2020 presidential election, is now defending the state s new, stricter voting law against a lawsuit by the U.S. Justice Department.  Raffensperger told CBSN s Tanya Rivero on Tuesday that he sees absolutely no merit in the lawsuit and insisted there is record voter turnout in the state. Attorney General Merrick Garland alleged in a lawsuit filed last week that Georgia s election law was enacted with the purpose of denying or abridging the right of Black Georgians to vote on account of their race or color, in violation of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.
