Nikema Williams Calls Out Brian Kemp Over Georgia Voting Law: 'A Lie Don't Care Who Tell It'

Georgia Representative Nikema Williams joined Democratic leaders in criticizing new legislation that many fear will limit voting access across the southern state, and particularly sideline communities of color during future elections.

Williams, who represents Georgia's fifth congressional district and began her first term in the U.S. House this past January, pinpointed fallacies inherent to Governor Brian Kemp's defense of the law in one of several messages shared to Twitter over the weekend.

"As my grandma used to say, 'A lie don't care who tell it,'" Williams tweeted Saturday, responding to a statement that Kemp's office issued the previous evening. In it, Georgia's Republican state leader claimed that SB 202, a package of broad voting restrictions formally signed into law on Thursday, "expands voting access, streamlines vote-counting procedures, and ensures election integrity."

Kemp, alongside Georgia's Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger, became prominent targets of former President Donald Trump's denigrating remarks in the aftermath of November's general contest. Refusing to accept that a majority of Georgia voters cast ballots in favor of President Joe Biden's win, even after the state conducted multiple audits to confirm results, Trump attempted to undermine Georgia's election process, as well as Kemp and Raffensperger's respective leadership capabilities, in lawsuits and the press.

2. It's time to turn on the lawsuits like djt did to fight the valid results of the 2020 elections in

Georgia, but this time, by the AARP, the Democratic Party, and others interested in expanding voter rights, not suppressing them. They (djt and cronies) ran up approximately 60 or so lawsuits, then let us do the same thing against this Georgia voter suppression efforts. Mr. Biden is already on top of things, having the DOJ look at these blatant and illegal attempts to suppress voter rights.
