On Tuesday, The Washington Free Beacon<\/a> reported that election lawyer Dara Lindenbaum, who is President Biden’s pick to serve on the Federal Election Commission, is representing Stacey Abrams’s nonprofit and Raphael Warnock’s church in a lawsuit that challenged the validity of Georgia’s 2018 election due in part to the state’s use of “unreliable” electronic voting machines. So the electronic voting machines were unreliable in 2018, but reliable in 2020?<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

In November 2018, election lawyer Dara Lindenbaum signed on to a federal legal complaint<\/a> on behalf of Abrams’s Fair Fight Action. The complaint challenged the constitutionality of Georgia’s 2018 election, which saw Abrams lose to Republican governor Brian Kemp in a race she never conceded. Warnock’s Ebenezer Baptist Church joined the suit<\/a> in early 2019, just months before the Democrat entered Georgia’s 2020 Senate race.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There were some changes made to the complaint in December 2020:<\/p>\n

According to the complaint, the state of Georgia “grossly mismanaged” the election by depriving “Georgia citizens, and particularly citizens of color, of their fundamental right to vote.” As a result, the complaint said, Georgia’s election “violated the First, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution.” The complaint also lamented the use of “insecure and unreliable” electronic voting machines that “lack a paper trail” and thus “cannot be audited”\u2014those machines even “switched” votes from Abrams to Kemp, according to the complaint.<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the lawsuit remains active, Fair Fight and other plaintiffs amended the complaint<\/a> in December 2020 to remove many of its assertions detailing problematic voting machines. The move came after former president Donald Trump said voting machine irregularities led to his defeat against Biden.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Prior to her role representing Fair Fight Action, Lindenbaum served as general counsel to Abrams’s 2018 gubernatorial campaign. Abrams lost that race to Kemp by roughly 2 points, but she never conceded her defeat<\/a>, instead saying the election was “stolen” due to “voter suppression.” In the aftermath of her loss, Abrams launched Fair Fight Action, a nonprofit that says it is “leading the charge to protect voting rights.” Fair Fight’s website<\/a> touts the group’s “historic civil rights lawsuit in federal court \u2026 challenging the gross mismanagement of the 2018 election that discouraged and disenfranchised voters.” Lindenbaum still serves as legal counsel to Fair Fight Action and the group’s political arm, Fair Fight PAC, her Office of Government Ethics disclosure<\/a> shows.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Neither Fair Fight Action nor Ebenezer Baptist Church returned requests for comment.<\/strong><\/p>\n
