ATLANTA — Elections in Fulton County are safe from a potential state takeover — at least for now.
A performance review of Fulton’s elections management won’t be completed until after this year’s results are certified, an attorney for the secretary of state’s office told the State Election Board on Monday.
Only after the review is finished could the State Election Board consider installing an interim superintendent, who would have broad powers to close polling places, decide on challenges to voter eligibility and certify results.
