A judge ruled<\/a> that the Fulton County Board of Commissioners is in civil contempt of court for failing to seat two Republican members, Julie Adams and Jason Frazier, on its election board as ordered. Starting Friday, the board will face a $10,000 daily fine if it does not comply. The ruling followed a deadlocked 2-2 vote by the commissioners, with three members absent. Senior Judge David Emerson criticized the board for acting in bad faith and awarded attorneys’ fees to the Fulton County Republican Party, which brought the lawsuit. The decision was highlighted by Fair Fight Action, a voting rights group<\/a>, which noted Adams and Frazier’s ties to the “Stop the Steal” movement and defended the commissioners’ discretion to reject nominees with controversial backgrounds.
