Official updates since Election Day

Each entry records one Georgia election-office document and the exact reporting unit it covers. It is not a statewide count, a race call or a certification unless the entry says the competent authority certified the contest.

Corrected tally: Georgia House District 154

Status: Corrected Seminole County figures; the district contest is unofficial and not certified. Authority: Seminole County Elections Department, with figures on the Georgia Secretary of State results site.

Seminole County's election-night report, marked “Unofficial & Incomplete,” counted 2,523 ballots. The county elections supervisor states that every memory card was accounted for, that the election management system had not completed its final validate-and-publish step for the last precinct, and that the completed report counted 2,911 ballots, an increase of 388. The Secretary of State's results site shows the corrected Seminole figures below and labels the county's results official; it labels the district-wide House District 154 results unofficial.
