Amid GOP focus on elections, Georgia Republicans remove officer found to have voted illegally
Source: Associated Press
ATLANTA (AP) Georgias Republican Party has removed one of its officers after an administrative law judge found he voted illegally nine times after moving to the state.
The state Republican Committee voted 146-24 on Friday to remove Brian K. Pritchard, its first vice chairman, state Chairman Josh McKoon said after the closed meeting.
Georgia is one of a number of state Republican parties that have experienced turmoil as supporters of Donald Trump have taken over at the grassroots level, ousting previous leaders and demanding that the party prioritize Trumps false claims of fraud in the 2020 election.
Many established Georgia Republicans including Gov. Brian Kemp have walked away from the state party organization. Kemp, for example, doesnt plan to appear at the state Republican Convention next week in Columbus.

The investigation found that he had voted without legal authority due to his felony sentence, though Pritchard maintained through the investigation that he believed he had served the sentence already.
