U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg on Monday denied the Georgia Republican’s request for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction to block the suit.

Free Speech for People, an election and campaign finance reform organization, filed the lawsuit last month on behalf of a group of the state’s voters, alleging Greene facilitated the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
Pointing to the 14th Amendment’s prohibition on anyone who “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from running for federal or state office, the suit alleges Greene is ineligible to run because she engaged in obstructing the transfer of presidential power, in part through her rhetoric challenging the election results.
Totenberg, an appointee of Barack Obama, will allow a state administrative judge to hear the challenge against Greene on Friday. Greene’s office did not immediately return requests for comment.
The radical Leftist group filed a similar challenge on behalf of voters against Madison Cawthorn, which a federal judge in North Carolina blocked last month.
