A recent Georgia State Election Board meeting sparked controversy as members clashed over a new election rule that mandates hand-counting of ballots on Election Day. The rule, approved in a 3-2 vote with three Republican members in favor and two others opposing, has raised concerns about potential delays in election results in the battleground state.
One of the Republican members, Dr. Janice Johnson, defended the decision, criticizing what she described as media inaccuracies and partisan attacks. She expressed frustration with the portrayal of the news as sensationalized and alarmist.
