Investigation underway after uncounted ballots reverse apparent election outcome
REGIONAL NEWS — A closely watched race for a seat in the Georgia House of Representatives has been thrown into uncertainty after election officials discovered hundreds of previously unreported votes in Seminole County.
The additional votes shifted the race from a narrow lead for Democrat Harry James to a lead of more than 260 votes for Republican incumbent Gerald Greene.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has launched an investigation into the discrepancy, which was uncovered during routine post-election checks.
Officials said the issue involved ~388 votes that were not included in initial election-night results.
The race could impact the balance of power in the state House, where Democrats are projected to hold a narrow majority.
