Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : "They're on fire, they're doing a great job," Trump said, naming the three of them but not Fervier.
60% : Voting for the rules and investigation into Fulton county were a trio of Republicans who were praised by Trump at a recent campaign rally in Atlanta.
50% : "The narratives exist already and are deeply embedded in the minds of some of the board members and certainly much of the audience and petitioners, and everything that is done in the meetings is done to perpetuate those narratives."Just as Tindall Ghazal's Republican colleagues voted to reopen the case against Fulton county, Trump was already promoting the decision on his social media platform, Truth Social.
46% : The audit found 345 more votes for Trump than had been counted during the election.
46% : King hosts a podcast and appears on a political panel at a TV station in Atlanta, but has no experience administering elections, nor does Jeffares.Leftwing groups like Fair Fight Action, which was founded by former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, a Democrat, said the trio of Johnston, King and Jeffares have been chosen for their roles on the board not because of their experience administering elections, but because of their fealty to Trump.
44% : "The Attorney General of Georgia MUST get moving on this," Trump wrote.
40% : At a recent Trump rally in Atlanta, Johnston stood and waved to the crowd as they applauded her, King and Jeffares for "fighting for victory", as Trump himself put it.
37% : For more than 16 hours on 6 and 7 August, Tindall Ghazal had sat with her fellow board members, all Republicans, and listened to speakers complain that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump - and propose rules that would prevent that from happening again in November but that Tindall Ghazal said will "cause chaos" in November.
36% : But that didn't change the fact that Biden had received 243,000 more votes than Trump in Fulton county, the audit confirmed.
35% : But that changed in 2020, when the SEB became the focus of election denial activists' attempts to prove the election was stolen from Trump.
32% : In a lengthy conversation with the Guardian, Jeffares, a Trump supporter, said he believed Trump lost fair and square in Georgia in 2020, but repeatedly expressed belief in possible election fraud taking place in the state, especially in Fulton county.
7% : Johnston has been receptive to complaints and calls for investigations from election denial activists, the Guardian found in March; Jeffares has openly posted about his belief in Trump's election lies, although he told the Guardian that he believes Trump legitimately lost in Georgia in 2020.
