The changes made so close to Election Day have drawn criticism from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, including Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
"These election board members that are not acting in the good faith of Georgians need to be immediately removed," Democratic state Sen. Nabilah Islam-Parkes told FOX 5.
Days after the majority Republican election board finalized new rules requiring county election officials to take additional measures before certifying results, Islam-Parkes filed an ethics complaint with the state in hopes Georgia’s top conservative would step in and take action.
"Three of the board members violated the Open Meetings Act and the state code of ethics," she said.
Those accusations stemmed from an impromptu July 12th meeting board members called to vote on new requirements for counties to review documents and verify overseas military ballot counts.
"They didn’t send out a notice to the public. They were warned by their own general counsel. They had it anyway," Islam-Parkes stated.
