Georgia Presidential Primary Election, in Atlanta

(Reuters) – A Georgia judge has temporarily halted a rule requiring clerks to hand count the total number of ballots, finding that it was “too much, too late” to implement for the 2024 election, a New York Times reporter posted on social media platform X.

The reporter posted a screenshot of the ruling.
