Georgia’s Republican-controlled state election board voted on Friday to require a labor-intensive hand count of potentially millions of ballots in November’s election, a move voting rights advocates say could cause delays, introduce errors and lay the groundwork for spurious election challenges.
The hand count rule, passed in a 3-2 vote, will make Georgia the only state in the U.S. to implement such a requirement as part of the normal process of tabulating results, according to Gowri Ramachandran, the director of elections and security at New York University’s Brennan Center for Justice, a left-leaning public policy institute.
its so rediculous how obvious they are and yet people still vote for this party or refuse to vote for the competition. Its not enough for them to lose at this point. they have to lose big and consistantly. I understand there are issues with our system but we have to at least retain the democracy we have while we get these folks out of the system entirely.
