Defendant does not object to testimony from these witnesses 1 Case 1:17-cv-04660-LMM Document 99 Filed 08/07/19 Page 2 of 25 regarding their individual efforts to meet the qualifying requirements under Georgia law, so long as that testimony is based upon the witnesses’ personal knowledge. However, Plaintiffs’ declarations go much further, containing sweeping conclusions—without factual support—regarding Georgia’s ballot access requirements. Many of these declarations also contain inadmissible hearsay statements and improper opinion testimony from witnesses not properly designated as experts. As detailed below, much of this testimony is inadmissible and should be disregarded by the Court. 1 To be considered at summary judgment, declarations “shall be made on personal knowledge, shall set forth such facts as would admissible in evidence, and shall show affirmatively that the affiant is competent to testify to the matters stated therein.” FED.

B.A. awarded May, 1992 Majors: Political Science & Communications Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI. M.S. in International Affairs awarded December, 1994 Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL. Ph.D. in Political Science awarded April, 2000 Dissertation The Onset and Escalation of Regime Claims in the Western Hemisphere, 1816-1992 Chair: Will H. Moore In my dissertation, I analyze the motivations behind a country's decision to call for the removal of another state's government, a serious challenge to state sovereignty and non-intervention principles. I construct a model explaining the initiation and escalation of these “regime claims” in the Americas. I find that states are motivated by two factors: (1) threats to an otherwise acceptable status quo, and (2) the opportunity to improve an unacceptable set of bilateral relations. Additionally, countries calculate the probability that they can oust another leader with a claim or militariZed action. I use logistic regression techniques to test a series of hypotheses derived from this theoretical model, finding that threats and opportunities drive claim initiation, but evaluations of the probability for success determine whether countries militariZe such claims.
