The RNC and the Georgia Republican Party appealed a judge’s decision that invalidated

seven election rules passed by the state’s election board. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox determined that the new rules are “illegal, unconstitutional and void,” because the state board did not have the authority to create such orders. Alex Kaufman, a lawyer for the state Republican Party, said that the RNC and state party filed an emergency appeal of the ruling to the state Supreme Court, according to the Associated Press.
