The Democratic Party of Georgia is suing Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) over a campaign finance law the party argues is unconstitutional, according to a complaint.
In the complaint, which was filed on Thursday in federal court, Georgia Democrats charged that a judge should overturn a 2021 law that allowed leadership committees in the state due to the law allegedly giving Republicans an unfair fundraising advantage. These types of committees may spend and raise unlimited amounts of money boosting candidates. Democrats hold that the law benefits GOP candidates, who they say can accumulate larger war chests due to incumbency than Democrats, who may start candidacies with less.
