Associated Press: Voting Issues Mark Final Stretch of Georgia Governor’s Race

ATLANTA – With early and absentee voting underway ahead of the Nov. 6 election, Democrats and voting rights groups in Georgia are staging massive voter protection operations, including poll monitors and voter assistance hotlines, to ensure people can access the ballot. …

Kemp’s office said voters have several ways to address questions or complaints: a dedicated call center, an online portal implemented by Kemp and an email system for addressing issues. And in many cases, county poll workers can help solve problems on the spot, Kemp’s office said.

But a number of voting rights and ethics watchdog groups are concerned that, with the variety of issues voters are experiencing, those services aren’t enough.

“It’s like a domino effect,” said Sara Henderson, executive director of Common Cause Georgia, about the voting issues in Georgia. “We expect lots of problems at the polling places because there has been a complete lack of voter education.”
