Today, I am posting the fifth installment of a six-part series debunking Rick Mohrig’s defenses of his terrible record.  This is my second post about Mohrig’s elections misbehavior.  Following is a link to Mohrig’s “Facts Matter” campaign web page.

Mohrig’s Facts Matter

False Assertion #5:  Milton’s election prep has been free from wrongdoing, and Rick Mohrig had no interference or improper influence.  (directly quoted from his web page)

This allegation is super easy to refute . . . like shooting fish in a barrel (as the saying goes).  The following is from Mohrig’s website:

Both Mohrig and Moore have asserted that the City Attorney’s response (attached below) to three separate complaints to the Georgia state elections board “exonerates” (their word) them from charges of elections misbehavior.  This is laughable and indicative of Mohrig and Moore’s assumption that voters are morons . . . are you sensing a theme here?  The City Attorney is the city’s defense lawyer.  Of course, he is going to assert that the city did nothing wrong . . . that is his job!  Obviously, defense attorneys cannot exonerate their clients.  If they could, our prisons would be empty.  Nevertheless, both Mohrig and Moore have been using the City’s Attorney letter (to the state elections board) as a blanket excuse for their elections misbehavior. 

Unless a voter has been living under a rock, he/she knows that Milton’s elections project has been a complete and utter disaster . . . Mohrig’s signature failure.  That is why Mohrig never boasts or even talks about it . . . unless he is forced to.  Milton will be paying MUCH MORE FOR MUCH LESS.  Costs for Milton to self-run its elections will be at least double the cost Fulton County would have charged . . . for much lower service levels:  fewer polling locations; fewer voting days/hours; no option to early vote outside Milton.

A vote for Cranmer and Cookerly is a vote AGAINST council member interference in elections.

Advocating AGAINST council member interference in THEIR own elections,

Note:  I am including a pdf file that provides my refutation of all six of Mohrig’s defenses of his record on land use, elections, and campaign collusion.  I urge readers to circulate this file to family, friends, and neighbors.  Voters must NOT let Mohrig get away with distorting his record and smearing his opponent.
