Atlanta, GA – Today, Governor Brian P. Kemp issued the following statement in response to President Biden’s attack on election integrity legislation in Georgia.

“It is obvious that neither President Biden nor his handlers have actually read SB 202, which I signed into law yesterday. This bill expands voting access, streamlines vote-counting procedures, and ensures election integrity. There is nothing ‘Jim Crow’ about requiring a photo or state-issued ID to vote by absentee ballot – every Georgia voter must already do so when voting in-person. President Biden, the left, and the national media are determined to destroy the sanctity and security of the ballot box. As Secretary of State, I consistently led the fight to protect Georgia elections against power-hungry, partisan activists. As Governor, I won’t back down from keeping Georgia elections secure, accessible, and fair.”

In a Facebook post Governor Kemp said, “for over 10 years, I’ve fought to secure elections in Georgia. While Democrats are supporting ballot harvesting and eliminating voter I.D. requirements, we just signed a new law to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat in the Peach State.

In Georgia, we now have:

  • Required voter I.D. on all absentee ballots
  • Increased oversight of local election boards which fail to follow state election law
  • Quicker, more accurate results
  • Secured drop boxes around the clock
