Special Committee Meets Ahead of Setting Rules for Next Voting System in Georgia
The task of the Election Equipment Specifications and Standards Committee comes following the Legislature’s prior direction to abolish the state’s QR code system for vote tabulation. While legislators previously faced a deadline to retire the QR codes last month, that deadline was extended to 2028, when the state will be required to tally votes using text that is readable to humans, not merely machines. The meeting last week was primarily logistical in nature.
