“Georgia officials tell Fox News they are investigating a Florida attorney for attempting to vote illegally in the state’s Jan. 5 Senate runoff, after a video emerged of him stating his intent to move to Georgia temporarily and encouraging others to use his relative’s address to do the same. In a speech on Nov. 7 to the Bay County Florida Republican Party, Florida attorney Bill Price announced he was ‘moving’ to Georgia to vote for Republican Senate candidates in order in to help Republicans keep the Senate majority” Fox News reports.
“‘If we lose the Senate on Jan. 5 in Georgia, we will become Venezuela,’ he told the crowd inside the county headquarters in a video posted to their Facebook page, ‘and I will invite each and every one of you to be my roommate in Georgia… I’m changing my voter registration right now, and I’m inviting two million people to be my roommate.’ Moving to Georgia temporarily only to vote is a crime in the state, according to Georgia’s office of Secretary of State. ‘Registering without the intention of permanent residency is a felony,’ the office said in a statement to Fox News from spokesman Walter Jones. ‘Only permanent residents are eligible to vote in Georgia.'”
