Georgia and the Voters
all those Georgia Voters removed from the rolls? Not so fast:
Georgians whose eligibility to vote has been questioned must be allowed to cast a ballot in the Nov. 4 election, a panel of federal judges ruled Monday.
The court also ordered Secretary of State Karen Handel to “make diligent and immediate efforts to notify, in a uniform manner, every person whose voter registration presently remains flagged.” Those voters must be told that they can vote by a “challenged ballot,” if necessary, and that there is a discrepancy in their registration information, the court said. Challenge ballots are typically cast on paper and are set aside and not counted until the discrepancy is cleared up.
While it doesn’t give a total victory for the Democrats, it at least gives those voters a chance to vote and in a close race, they would be counted.
