Bill Price is seen in a now-deleted Facebook Live video, speaking to the Bay County GOP members in Florida on Nov. 7th. It was about half an hour after the election was called for the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris ticket.
...
Price told the group hes moving to his brothers address in Hiram, Georgia in order to register to vote in the January runoff. He repeats and spells and his brothers name and address, as members of the group jot it down. They can be heard mumbling the address in the background while some write.
We can truly register at that address? one woman asks.
Sure, Price answers, adding they have to plan to show a move, suggesting they have mail sent there.

When contacted, he lied that this was a joke, but:
"But Channel 2 confirmed Price registered to vote the day after he made the speech, using his brothers Hiram address and swearing to an affidavit that he was a Georgia resident and eligible to vote.
...
In a Wednesday afternoon, Georgias Deputy Secretary of State Jordan Fuchs confirmed the office would be exploring the felony charges tied to fraudulent voter registration in Georgia."
Busted.
