Georgia Votes QR Code Controversy

Georgia Republicans are clinging to their QR code voting system for this year’s midterms — but with a twist: a controversial amendment forcing a full hand recount of the top two races. Passed along party lines in the Senate, the move defies a July deadline that would have banned QR codes, pushing it back to 2028 instead. Democrats and voting rights advocates are outraged, calling it reckless and confusing for voters just months before a pivotal swing state election. While Republicans claim the hand recount boosts confidence and security, critics warn it could sow chaos. Redistricting, originally on the agenda, is now on hold as lawmakers focus on this high-stakes voting debate — and whether the amendment will survive the House before Election Day.
