Two Georgia election officials were fired after reportedly shredding paper voting registration applications over the course of the past two weeks.

Townhall reports:

A total of 300 municipal election-related applications were allegedly shredded, according to a statement from Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R), who has asked the Department of Justice to investigate the incident.

“After 20 years of documented failure in Fulton County elections, Georgians are tired of waiting to see what the next embarrassing revelation will be,” Raffensperger said. “The Department of Justice needs to take a long look at what Fulton County is doing and how their leadership disenfranchises Fulton voters through incompetence and malfeasance. The voters of Georgia are sick of Fulton County’s failures.”

State law requires election officials keep elections documents related to primary or general elections for two years after the election.

According to Fulton County spokeswoman Jessica Corbitt, the question of whether the 300 voter registration applications were lost cannot yet be confirmed.

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp praised the new voting bill after news about continued issues in Fulton Country were reported.
