The Georgia State Election Board is set to vote Friday on several election rules that have raised red flags among several voting rights organizations, Democrats and county election officials in advance of the November general election.

A series of proposed election rule changes by the State Election Board may be unconstitutional, according to the Attorney General's office.

The judge overseeing the Georgia election interference against Donald Trump and others has tossed out three counts in the indictment saying that they lie beyond the state's jurisdiction.

One measure, to be voted on Friday, would require hand counting of ballots. Critics say that it would create widespread confusion in a state pivotal to the presidential race.

The state that handed former President Donald Trump one of his narrowest losses four years ago is immersed in election controversies even before the first ballots of this year's presidential race are cast.
