An analysis by ProPublica shows that counties wouldn’t have to toss out many precincts to tip the election if it’s as close as it was in 2020 .

An advantage of about 8,000 Democratic votes could be at risk in just 12 precincts in three counties under the new rule, the analysis found.

A judge is expected to decide soon whether the rule will stand.

Spalding County , Georgia , has played a prominent role in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

A hacker emailed a team of lawyers challenging the election results on behalf of Trump , including Sidney Powell and Lin Wood .

The hacker and operative were able to help their allies access voter machine data elsewhere, which became a central pillar in a conspiracy theory.

In counties like Spalding, Ware and Troup , the conservative majority has the power to determine how to “compute the votes justly” Democratic lawyers argued this could mean not certifying Democratic votes.

Troup County removed two Black women and two men from its elections board when it restructured in 2021 , shrinking the board from seven to five .
