The lawsuit, filed in June 2021 under former President Biden, claimed the law was designed to suppress Black voter turnout.

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday directed the Department of Justice to dismiss a lawsuit challenging a Republican-backed Georgia election law that the DOJ previously alleged intentionally suppressed Black voters.

The lawsuit originally filed in 2017 questioning the security and reliability of electronic voting machines in Georgia has been dismissed by a judge.

A pair of election bills the Georgia Senate passed Wednesday propose new State Election Board powers, remove Georgia from multi-state voter rolls sharing databases and allow voters to request hand-marked paper ballots.

A federal judge has dismissed a long-running lawsuit that questioned whether Georgia's touchscreen voting system was safe and secure.
