The Georgia Republican Party and President Donald Trumps campaign filed a lawsuit Wednesday alleging that Chatham County is improperly counting absentee ballots received after the states deadline.
The petition, filed in Chatham County Superior Court, was the third filed by the Trump campaign, all in states with close races where ballots were still being counted late Wednesday.
The Georgia suit addresses how absentee ballots were stored and states that ballots received after 7 p.m. Tuesday should not be counted. A poll watcher claims he saw late ballots being mixed in with those submitted on time.
Failing to ensure that absentee ballots received after the deadline are stored in a manner to ensure that such ballots are not inadvertently or intentionally counted, as required under Georgia law, harms the interests of the Trump Campaign and President Trump because it could lead to the dilution of legal votes cast in support of President Trump, the petition states.
The petition seeks to have a judge oversee that Chatham County elections officials account for all absentee ballots.
