Georgia voters remain skeptical about election security leading into November’s Presidential election, according to a recent poll from the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

AJC polling shows that about 57% of Georgia voters are either “very confident” or “somewhat confident” in the fairness of the 2024 Presidential election. That number has remained stable since January.

Confidence plummets to only 35% among Republicans.

Since his 2020 loss, former President Trump has taken aim at Georgia’s absentee balloting process, claiming widespread fraud. But Trump is not the only politician to attribute his loss to fraud. Democrats spent years claiming that Republicans cheated and stole the 2000 election then spread debunked conspiracy theories about Russia and voter suppression myths lead by former Democrat Gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams.

Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has slammed both Trump and Stacey Abrams-allied Democrat machines for stoking the flames of doubt through “sleight of hand” and unfounded claims.

“What we are witnessing is the culmination of many years of cynical attacks against the foundations of our democracy,” Raffensperger said in a treatise for National Affairs.

Raffensperger highlights historical statistics including a 2016 YouGov poll showing 52% of Democrats believed Russian hackers altered votes in favor of Trump and a 2019 AJC poll showing that 85% of Democrats believed that voter suppression and voter machine problems affected the 2018 Gubernatorial election.

The AJC poll comes just days after the Department of Justice intervened in a lawsuit over Georgia’s absentee balloting rules. Republicans have long been critical of the Democrat strategy of mass-ballot collection known as “ballot harvesting” and the accompanying election security concerns. Secretary of State Raffensperger has called for a national ban on ballot harvesting but other Republicans have chosen to compete with Democrat’s operations and mount their own ballot harvesting operations.
