JUST IN: Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger fends off challenge after Trump backlash
Perhaps no Georgia Republican faced as much blowback and as many withering attacks from former President Trump in the aftermath of the 2020 election than Raffensperger.
Raffensperger manages Georgia's elections and has consistently defended the state's results as accurate. "Standing for you, standing for the rule of law and election integrity, standing for the truth and not buckling under the pressure is what people want," Raffensperger told reporters late Tuesday as he claimed victory.This primary election largely came down to Georgia Republicans' beliefs about the 2020 election. Rep. Jody Hice's campaign for Secretary of State was premised on false claims of widespread fraud.
