Georgia election board approves rule to hand-count ballots night of election

The Geor­gia State Elec­tion Board vot­ed 3–2 on Fri­day to require coun­ties to hand-count all bal­lots, in addi­tion to machine tal­lies, in the 2024 elec­tion.
The deci­sion, dri­ven by the board’s Repub­li­can major­i­ty, means that bal­lots in Geor­gia will be hand-count­ed by elec­tion work­ers the night of Nov. 5 in addi­tion to the nor­mal machine tal­lies that take place. The move was cel­e­brat­ed by allies of for­mer Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump, who believe that the changes will help alle­vi­ate con­cerns of vot­er fraud the for­mer pres­i­dent raised four years ago in rela­tion to Pres­i­dent Joe Biden’s nar­row vic­to­ry in the Peach State.
