What you need to know about Ray Smith III’s 2020 election charges

Prosecutors alleged Smith worked to overturn the election, including by claiming to members of Georgia’s state Senate and House of Representatives that there had been widespread voter fraud.

Prosecutors alleged Smith worked to overturn the election in multiple steps, including claiming to members of Georgia’s state Senate and House of Representatives that there had been widespread voter fraud, which the indictment suggests he knew to be untrue. He also helped appeal to state lawmakers to appoint a slate of alternate electors who would vote for Trump instead of Biden in the Electoral College and encouraged the false Trump elector nominees to sign a document titled “Certificate of the Votes of the 2020 Electors from Georgia.”

Smith, along with many of the other named co-conspirators, allegedly presented false information before various committees in Georgia’s legislature between Dec. 3 and Dec. 30, 2020, incorrectly stating that thousands of felons, minors and other ineligible Americans had illegally registered to vote or cast ballots in the presidential election.

Farmers in the rural region near the New York border say those stories are not unique.


“The whole thing is screwed up,” said John Painter, a three-time Trump voter who runs an organic dairy farm in Westfield. “We need people to do the jobs Americans are too spoiled to do.”

These are the voices Thompson and other farm-state lawmakers are hearing as they discuss potential solutions. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins’ assurances that American workers and machines can help close the gap ring hollow among farmers who have become reliant on migrant labor that is increasingly hard to find in the face of Trump’s immigration crackdown.

The U.S. agricultural workforce fell by 155,000 — about 7 percent — between March and July, according to an analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics data. That tracks with Pew Research Center data that shows total immigrant labor fell by 750,000 from January through July. The labor shortage piles onto an ongoing economic crisis for farmers exacerbated by dwindling export markets that could leave them with crop surpluses.

“People don’t understand that if we don’t get more labor, our cows don’t get milked and our crops don’t get picked,” said Tim Wood, a dairy farmer and a member of the Pennsylvania Farm Bureau board of directors.

It's notable that in all of the discussions about Ray on this board, I have never once heard you defend him on the merits. It's always been a critique of Willis. Fiat justitia ruat caelum? Not for Georgia lawyers, apparently.

It is fundamentally unfair to pressure a man to testify here against his boss. Especially when the boss might or might not have access to his internet activity at work.

If you’re a lawyer and you have reason to testify against your boss, you have an ethical duty to find another job. No chance that’s the reason Ram won’t defend him here.

I didn't mean testify in a court of law. I said here. I just don't like this line of questioning because the poster in question gives us so much fodder that we don't really have to go into it. I have no issues with mocking him for it when his position is inconsistent with his other expressed views, but dragging him for not saying his boss is a felon seems wrong. Just registering an objection.

This is fair.

Nonsense. Neither Gov Kemp nor Pres Trump waived their authoritarian magic wands to dismiss the criminal charges. The regular legal process took its course. Defendant's filed motions before the trial judge who ruled upon them. The ruling was appealed to the court of appeals which issued its order. The matter is currently pending in the supreme court of Georgia.

Similarly, with respect to the statute allowing defendants to recoup their attorneys fees when a prosecutor is removed from the case, this bill was passed by both state houses and signed by the Governor.

I've previously said I'm not a big fan of these ad hoc tariffs. They are not the unmitigated disaster as predicted here but they are preventing (along with interest rates) the economy from taking off.

They are an unmitigated disaster. Look at the billions in military contracts we lost in the last couple of days as further proof. And they are only 45 days old. It will get worse.

I wish the reporters would ask every one of these people, “who do you blame more? Trump for doing exactly what he said he would do, or you for voting for it?”
 
Some of these people in a few years, "Yeah, we're in a depression and we're living out of our car after losing the house/farm, and since DOGE and Trump 2.0 cut Medicaid and other welfare programs to the bone we can't get much help or medical care and our kid is dying from health complications because we can't afford any medicine and they got rid of vaccines, but we still love Trump cause he drove out all them damn illegals and went after them transgenders and other sinful weird people that were playing girls sports and might have used our daughter's restroom if she still had one. So we'll still vote for his rotting corpse for a fifth time when Republicans run him in 2032, even though we might all starve to death before then."
