In large red letters atop a Georgia Secretary of State's office web page featuring precinct-by-precinct vote tallies from the May 22 primary election stand the words: "Official Results."
But the data is hardly official. Two and a half months after the primary, many of the voter turnout figures are wrong _ in some instances wildly wrong, excluding totals from the Democratic races in the red state.
A spokesperson for Secretary of State Brian Kemp, the Republican nominee for governor, said the data is "preliminary," because the state's system lacks computer programming to add totals from multiple parties' primaries.
