Republican state lawmakers in Florida and Georgia, citing fears of voter fraud, are poised to create special 'election police forces.' But voting rights advocates say voter fraud is almost non-existent and such forces will likely suppress voter turnout
found fewer than 475 potential cases of fraud out of 25.5 million ballots cast in six states where Trump and his allies disputed results.
When Georgia voters hear that police will be investigating election issues, that will have a chilling effect, says Aklima Khondoker, chief legal officer at the New Georgia Project, which opposes the Georgia measure. “If you think you made a mistake, and now you’re going to be investigated by the GBI, that’s big and scary,” Khondoker says, adding that the GBI does not generally investigate election law. “They consider criminal matters almost exclusively,” she says.
