What's your solution? Would it not work the same way if the other party had the majority in the state legislature? Or would it only be OK if your party controlled everything? And would your party only choose totally unbiased people? By whose standards would they be judged unbiased? It goes on and on.
I believe the GA legislature has tried to address issues that have been raised, maybe fairly, maybe unfairly. They have made a law to investigate allegations of voting irregularities, and if there are irregularities found and documented, try and fix them in as best a way that can be done by politicians.
Yes, this law would be just as bad if the Democrats controlled the state legislature and used it to take over local election boards. But they don't. And they haven't in states where they do control the legislature. This type of gamesmanship is only occurring in Republican states where they are concerned about losing power and have hopped on Trump's completely unsupported allegations of voter fraud as an excuse. This is a bogus "solution" in search of a nonexistent problem.
