Georgia Election Board Director’s Rogue Letter to DOJ Sparks Internal Chaos Ahead of Midterms
James Mills, executive director of the Georgia State Election Board, sent a letter to Attorney General Todd Blanche requesting federal intervention in the 2026 midterms, including a ban on QR-code ballot tabulation. Board members, including Chair John Fervier, denied authorizing the letter, calling it an unauthorized act of chaos. Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office condemned the move, while the DOJ has not yet publicly responded.
