Georgia voter turnout groups are closing, raising questions about Democratic strength
- On Thursday, the New Georgia Project and its Action Fund announced they are closing, with Rev. James Woodall confirming the board's decision and urging continued support for justice and equity.
- In recent years, the New Georgia Project faced mounting legal and financial troubles, including a record $300,000 fine and undisclosed roughly $4.2 million in contributions and $3.2 million in expenditures.
- Once a powerhouse, the New Georgia Project registered tens of thousands of voters and knocked on 4 million doors in 2020, boasting a multimillion-dollar budget at its peak.
- The closure raises fresh doubts about sustaining Democratic organizing in Georgia as Democrats eye the governor's race and Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff seeks reelection in 2026, while Black Voters Matter warns disinvestment since 2020 has hurt capacity.
- In recent weeks only a skeletal staff remained after several rounds of layoffs since the 2024 election, while Stacey Abrams and U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock have distanced themselves from current operations.
