In a recent government meeting, the Supply and Logistics Division reported successful completion of all equipment and supply deliveries for the June 18, 2024, general primary runoff election. The division prepared supply bags, boxes, and signs, and provided essential support to precincts for both advance voting and election day. Following the runoff, staff initiated a comprehensive inventory of supplies in the elections warehouse in preparation for the upcoming November 2024 election.
Voter education efforts were also highlighted, focusing on promoting the runoff elections for District 38, District 35, and the Fulton County Commission race. The division emphasized its ongoing partnerships with community organizations and the implementation of an elections academy. Citizens were encouraged to utilize the Fulton Elections website for event participation and voter registration drives, with a reminder to submit requests early to ensure timely support.
The meeting also included a review of post-election materials, addressing inquiries related to election certification. Director Williams confirmed that no discrepancies were found in the May or June elections, and all questions raised during the certification process were resolved. A clerical error regarding ballot counts was clarified, with assurance that all numbers were confirmed accurate.
Lastly, the board discussed proposals for election monitors, noting a previous proposal that exceeded budget guidelines was withdrawn. Two new proposals were introduced for consideration, including one from Ryan Germany, a former general counsel for the Georgia Secretary of State's office. The board is set to review these proposals in the coming sessions.
