Georgia's vote-counting method will soon be banned. Lawmakers will try to find a fix this week

Georgia lawmakers are convening a special session to address a law banning QR code-based vote counting, which remains unimplemented. Conflicting guidance from election officials and an approaching deadline for a special election in July 1 have raised concerns about potential confusion and litigation. The issue stems from a 2024 law requiring a replacement method by July 2026, but no solution has been enacted.
