A judge has blocked a new Georgia rule mandating hand counting of ballots post Election Day, following concerns about potential refusals to certify results by Trump allies.
Fulton County Judge Robert McBurney found the hand count rule excessive and premature, noting that delays in election processes cannot justify refusing to certify results.
With the new rules enacted by the Trump-endorsed majority, there are fears that election results might be undermined or certification delayed, jeopardizing public trust.
The Cobb County election board successfully sought to invalidate recent rules from the State Election Board, arguing they exceeded authority and compliance with state law.
