As election workers across Georgia prepare for a massive hand-recount, we wanted to highlight some lighter news where the presidential race is concerned.

On Wednesday, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger ordered a full audit of election results in Georgia. It’s the first time this has ever happened in our state.
The audit will focus on the presidential election and all ballots will be recounted by hand.

It will be an audit, a recount and a recanvas all at once. It will be a heavy lift but we will work with the counties to get this done in time for our state certification.”
Counties will have to recount every one of the 5 million ballots.
