格鲁吉亚共和党人提出参议院第568号法案,要求无QR码的手记纸选票,并在11月选举前将早期选民分配到具体投票地点。 Georgia Republicans advanced Senate Bill 568, which would require hand-marked paper ballots without QR codes and assign early voters to specific polling locations by November’s election. 该法案规定选举前公布选民名单,实时报告投票情况,对未能保持准确选民名册的县登记员处以最高10 000美元的罚款。 The bill mandates pre-election publication of voter lists, real-time vote reporting, and fines up to $10,000 for county registrars who fail to maintain accurate rolls. 在对投票系统安全的担忧下,这些变化因仓促而面临批评,专家们警告说,在及时采购选票打印机方面存在后勤困难。 Pushed amid concerns over voting system security, the changes face criticism for being rushed, with experts warning of logistical challenges in acquiring ballot printers in time. 特别是5月大选和11月大选的不同规则, 民主党人反对大修, 认为大修会造成混乱, Democrats oppose the overhaul, arguing it could create confusion and hinder access, especially with different rules for May’s primary and November’s general election. 该法案在委员会中通过了8-4项法案,并提交给参议院全体议员。 The bill passed 8-4 in committee and moves to the full Senate.
