Georgias Voting Machines in Limbo: Lawmakers Fail to Address QR Code Ban, Elections Hang in the Balance

Georgia lawmakers adjourned without resolving the issue of QR codes on voting machines, leaving elections in a state of uncertainty ahead of the July 1st deadline. The new law bans QR codes, while existing rules require counties to use the machines without funding to reprogram or replace them. Democrats criticized Republicans for avoiding responsibility, while House Republicans proposed a delay until 2028, which was rejected by the Senate. Election supervisors are unsure of the next steps and may seek guidance from the secretary of state, potentially leading to legal battles. Without a swift resolution, Georgias elections could face chaos, with hand-marked paper ballots as a possible but unwanted backup for November.
