Democrat Raphael Warnock has been a senator for Georgia for about a month. He is already under investigation.
Election authorities are looking into allegations of voter registration fraud.
How odd. Democrats insist this never happens.
Forbes reports:
Georgia Sen. Warnock Under Investigation For Voter Registration Misconduct
The Georgia State Election Board voted unanimously Wednesday to move forward with an investigation of U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) for his role serving as board chairman of a voter registration organization founded by Stacey Abrams that election officials say failed to follow deadlines, in what appears to be the latest legal step in the ongoing feud between the progressive Abrams and the state’s Republican election officials.
KEY FACTS
Warnock served as chairman of the board for the New Georgia Project in 2019, which is when election officials claim misconduct took place.
Under Georgia election rules, voting registration organizations like the New Georgia Project have to submit completed voter applications within ten days after they are received from the voter.
But officials allege that during a 2019 registration effort, some 1,268 applications were submitted to the Gwinnett County elections office after the ten-day deadline.
The Board voted 3-0 to refer the investigation to Georgia’s Republican Attorney General Chris Carr, with the board’s lone Democrat joining Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in abstaining from the vote.
Reminder: The anti-Trump group the ‘Lincoln Project’ helped get Warnock elected.
Interesting. The Lincoln Project’s largest donor was Chuck Schumer ($1.9M). They spent millions to help Dems like Biden, Bullock, Warnock, Ossoff and the new DNC Chair Jaime Harrison. https://t.co/nf6TikFgIP

Warnock has to run again in 2022. This could come back to haunt him.
