The Oconee County Board of Elections and Registration, meeting on Monday (June 22) for certification of the June 16 Primary Runoff Election, voted to tell the county’s two representatives in the Georgia House of its opposition to legislation passed in the Senate a few days earlier.
The Senate had passed Senate Bill 3 EX on Saturday (June 20) that would have required Election Boards in the state’s 159 counties to hand count prior to certification the results for the top two elected offices in each election.
