Fulton County’s embattled elections office Wednesday edged closer to a possible state takeover of its operations.
The State Elections Board appointed a performance review panel to look into Fulton County’s election management. The review essentially puts Fulton – which has long wrestled with long lines during elections and other problems over the years – on the path to losing governance over its election system.
The performance review is part of a series of changes instituted under Georgia’s new elections reform law, the Georgia Election Integrity Act.
