In a recent development in Georgia's Cobb County, certain voters who received their absentee ballots late will still have their votes counted under specific conditions. The county, located just north of Atlanta, failed to send out absentee ballots to approximately 3,400 voters who had requested them until late last week.
According to Georgia law, absentee ballots must typically be received by the close of polls on Election Day. However, a lower court judge ruled last week that the affected ballots could be counted if they were postmarked by Tuesday and received by Friday, three days after Election Day.
