Counties can’t certify their election results until the challenges are resolved. If the voters can prove citizenship, Handel said, their ballots will be counted.
Any voter can challenge another’s qualifications to cast a ballot by notifying a precinct poll manager, Handel said. That voter then would be given a challenge ballot and would have to go before the election board.
So, we're going to allow anyone voting on Election Day to point fingers at other voters and say they're not a legal citizen, and the state will then put tell them to vote on a paper ballot which won't be counted until the citizenship dispute is resolved on Friday? Where am I? How does anyone think this is a good idea? The possibility of abusing this system to, if nothing other than cause mayhem, is incredible. What if I just sit at the polls all day and say I want every single voter to prove their citizenship before we count their vote? Would they remove me from the polls? What if I got a group of people together and we rotated in and out of polls all day long causing problems? What an incredible mess they've opened themselves up to.
