Georgia Judge Blocks State's Hand-Count Ballot Rule as 'Too Much, Too Late'
Oct 16, 2024, 02:21 AM
A Georgia judge has temporarily blocked a new rule requiring counties to hand-count ballots in the upcoming 2024 election. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ruled that implementing such a significant change just six weeks before Election Day was "too much, too late." The rule, approved by the Georgia State Election Board late last month, would have mandated election workers to hand-count the total number of ballots cast in each precinct. Critics argued that the procedure, instituted by a pro-Trump majority on the state election board, would have almost certainly led to errors and delays on Election Day. The judge's decision restores the "status quo," averting potential chaos in the election process.
