“I’m done with Fulton County fumbling our elections. I’m done with the gross mismanagement of our taxpayer dollars by the Fulton County Democrats on this body,” he declared. “I’m disgusted at the information that is coming out of the District Attorney’s office as a taxpayer. I am DONE with most of your silence at the DA’s apparent love affair with the special prosecutor, and gross mismanagement of taxpayer’s dollars to pursue, what appears to be, a frivolous lawsuit based off of partisan politics.”
But Blassingame was just getting started.
“Apparently guys like me need to court Fulton County female executives if we want a free ride, all paid expense. Apparently we need to pursue Natalie Hall and Fani Willis or maybe the executives in other departments if we want a full ride, and full pay,” he jabbed. “The DA appears to be trying to protect past elections but upon information and belief, she’s trying to interfere with future elections by trying to convict a candidate before the general election.”
Then he got down to business.
“I’m requesting a financial audit to be done by the county auditor of the district attorney’s office immediately,” he demanded. “There is no way that you get more money when you’re spending money, allegedly, for unnecessary and frivolous purposes. Also, these judges need to hire lobbyists instead of grandstanding this board with these mediocre public relations stunts. Magistrate court still needs a systemic boost and an IT transformation that’s been achieved by the Superior Court clerk. It needs to be pulled together.”
After being notified that he only has 15 seconds remaining for his remarks, Blassingame makes a final demand of the board.
“Finally, I’m urging you to appoint Julie Adams to the Board of Registration and Elections without delay. We need someone that’s transparent, that’s open and that can be open-minded to all concerns and can address the people’s needs.”
Social media praised the man for saying what is on the minds of many:
I applaud this gentleman for stepping forward and requesting an audit.
