Reporting Voting Issues in Georgia

By  Politics  1 Comment
  1. If you are having any voting issues today, the first contact needs to be the County Election Department of the County you are voting in. They have the ability to handle your issue directly and in a quicker manner. Each County handles the registrations and elections for that County, so they have direct contact with paperwork, machines, etc. You can find the contact information for your county at https://elections.sos.ga.gov/Elections/countyregistrars.do
  2. If you cannot get a resolution at the County level, then your next step needs to be contacting the Georgia Secretary of State’s office. Again, the County level is going to be best.
  3. If for some reason neither can help you with your issue and you are a member of a political party, contact your State Party and report the issue.

    There’s also been a fair amount of fearmongering playing off the few technical glitches I mentioned earlier, with right-wing media framing the hiccups as only impacting pro-Trump districts and raising the specter of something more sinister.
    Sean Hannity’s website, for example, posted about the voting machines in Spalding County, Georgia, which were down this morning but are now functioning, according to local media. Hannity’s site headlined the story “‘All Voting Machines Go Down in Georgia County That Trump Won by 24% in 2016.” Firstly, districts that went for Trump are not the only ones facing difficulties. Franklin County, Ohio, where e-poll books were malfunctioning, went for Clinton by 26 percentage points in 2016, for example. Secondly, Georgia replaced all of its voting machines less than a year ago, and any time election officials or voters are interacting with new equipment, the risk of a problem goes up.”
