A Georgia judge has blocked an order to count ballots by hand in the upcoming presidential election, ruling that it would create administrative chaos and undermine public confidence. The hand-count rule, passed by the state's pro-Trump election board, was halted by Judge Robert McBurney, who cited a lack of adequate training for poll workers. Democratic candidate Kamala Harris welcomed the decision. Early voting began Tuesday in Georgia with record turnout.
