Former US Senator Kelly Loeffler took to Twitter and warned there are armed Black Panthers patrolling voting stations across Georgia. She would follow up her statement by saying the presence of Black Panthers near polling stations is part of a "scare tactic" from the left. The New Black Panther Party held a press conference the day before the Senate run-off and announced:
Khallida Ramla Bastet said at a press conference Monday, "No one will come and touch, harm, threaten, do anything to any person walking into that voting booth to exercise that right."
- Bastet would continue, "This is a legal position that we are taking. We are in a position where if anything happens to anyone, we are here to offer you legal representation."
The new Black Panther Party has a large presence in Georgia
- In 2021, hundreds of Black Panthers showed up in the state of Georgia during the Ahmaud Arbery murder trial in Brunswick, Georgia.
- This is not the first time intimidation tactics have been used during an election by the Black Panthers.
