Georgia election officials probe whether Rep. Drew Ferguson voted illegally

That probe was launched the day after The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Ferguson, R-Ga., voted in person in Troup County during last year’s primary, general and runoff elections despite having moved to a different home in Pike County, roughly 63 miles away.

It’s illegal in Georgia for voters to cast a ballot in a county where they don’t have a residence.
