Staff Analysis of the Legislation

SB 225 amends Chapter 2 of Title 21 of the OCGA. It states that a county election superintendent may begin processing and tabulating the advance voting ballots cast on direct recording electronic (DRE) voting equipment after 6PM on the day of the primary, election, or runoff. The procedures for written ballots in regard to written notices and absentee ballots have now been amended to include DRE voting.
