Concerns about the potential for violations and lack of oversight regarding the Hall County elections office have prompted local officials to push for a bill in the Georgia General Assembly to create a new board to supervise elections and voter registration. “There needs to be some accountability,” South Hall Commissioner Craig Lutz said. The proposed Board of Elections and Registrations of Hall County would remove supervision of the chief registrar from the Hall County Superior Court and put it into the hands of the county administrator.
