Georgia Election Board Requests Federal Ban on Certified Voting Machines Ahead of Midterms
James Mills, executive director of Georgia’s Republican-led State Election Board, has requested the Department of Justice to declare the state’s certified voting machines illegal and impose a six-month deadline for their removal. The move, which contradicts positions held by several board members, occurs just weeks before early voting begins. Critics argue the request aims to undermine confidence in the 2026 midterm results, while the Secretary of State’s office maintains that current systems are secure and that the board is causing unnecessary chaos.
