Georgia Election Board's New Powers, Kemp Seeks AG Guidance Ahead of 2024
Aug 26, 2024, 02:07 PM
Georgia's Republican-controlled state election board voted 3-2 to allow county election board members to investigate discrepancies between cast ballots and voter numbers before certification. This decision has raised concerns among voting rights groups, Democrats, and some Republicans about potential election subversion. Governor Brian Kemp's office is seeking guidance from the Attorney General on whether he has the authority to remove State Election Board members who have been implementing these reforms. The situation in Georgia is seen as a potential battleground for the 2024 elections, with local election officials gaining new powers that could impact the certification process.
