Secure Families Initiative Amicus Brief Challenging Georgia SEB Hand Count Rule — DeKalb BOER v. SEB
CLC represented Secure Families Initiative (SFI) in amicus briefs supporting various challenges to the recent rule passed by the Georgia State Election Board which would require voting precincts to hand count all ballots before tabulation, which SFI and CLC opposed because of the risk that the rule would add significant time and complexity to poll workers’ workload, create serious and unnecessary chain of custody issues for counties, and threaten the counties’ ability to certify election results.
