Boulee said he struck down the lawsuit brought by the Coalition for Good Governance because there are already runoff elections underway in the state.<\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit alleges the law infringes on voter\u2019s First Amendment rights and is a violation of the Voting Rights Act. He added the court may issue a judgement on voting rules at a later date when elections are not already ongoing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are at the juncture where all of the challenged provisions are already the law. Therefore, an injunction would not merely preserve the status quo; rather, it would change the law in the ninth inning,\u201d said Boulee.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CoalitionGoodGv?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CoalitionGoodGv<\/a> are fighting for your liberties every day!<br \/>Please support our 3 Pillars of Liberty lawsuit challenging GA&#8217;s new voting law <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SB202?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SB202<\/a>.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4EJwZyh8fV\">https:\/\/t.co\/4EJwZyh8fV<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rEjCxHIDNo\">pic.twitter.com\/rEjCxHIDNo<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Marilyn Marks (@MarilynRMarks1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MarilynRMarks1\/status\/1411768196890234888?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 4, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Georgia\u2019s new voting law, which passed along party lines following the 2020 elections, makes a number of changes seeking to ensure election integrity.
