Notable also is that the judge was appointed by Obama. Keep this in mind when considering the following...

The judge, Judge Amy Totenberg, has set a trial for January for findings and issues to be presented then, but note that she also stated...
"... Totenberg said she won’t order Georgia to use hand-marked paper ballots, even if the plaintiffs prevail during the trial set to begin Jan. 9. She said it’s not within her power to mandate a new statewide voting system that would replace equipment manufactured by Dominion Voting Systems. ..."
.
That's a fair statement, but also a signal that they'll continue to fight against paper ballots and hand-counting. For someone who may have more sway in deciding the method of fraud their elections will implement we now have some interesting statements from their Deputy Secretary of State.
From the article also note...
"... Deputy Secretary of State Jordan Fuchs said the plaintiffs have never offered an election security solution that doesn’t include hand-marked paper ballots. The state has been fighting the lawsuit since 2017.
“We don’t negotiate with election deniers,” Fuchs said. “If they have an idea that wouldn’t take Georgia back to the days of hanging chads and stuffed ballot boxes, they should offer it.” ..."
.
So the current ruling IS good, but their strategy is being laid bare. They're digging in on NOT allowing paper ballots and hand-counting. They know they can't cheat enough if they can't implement machines so I hope the WHs are three steps ahead on this. And I'm wondering if their election fraud infrastructure is solid enough to deliver their desired fraudulent results or if it's been dismantled behind the scenes enough to inhibit their cheating.
This is going to be interesting to watch as it unfolds.
How refreshing to see a Federal Judge acknowledge that they don't have power under the Constitution to determine the method of voting. That is a power assigned exclusively to the State Legislature. As with any other act by the Legislature, the Judiciary does have the power to determine whether the method chosen meets constitutional requirements. If the Legislature does not structure a valid voting system, the Judge can declare the election invalid. In the case of a presidential election, the Legislature would then determine who receive the states electoral votes.
