Madelyn Orochena’s victory was short-lived after a memory card was discovered Wednesday. The results changed with the projected winner being Lynette Burnette.
Cobb Election officials said the memory card was found in the Kennesaw area while election workers were preparing for a risk-limiting audit. The results attributed to the card have since been sent to Georgia’s Secretary of State’s office, election leaders said.
Cobb County election officials said the results listed on the Secretary of State’s election page now reflect the accurate results. Orochena said in a social media post that she would be filing a complaint with the Secretary of State’s Office. “Just trying to gain more information, what is within my rights, so we can be confident whoever wins, wins fairly,” Orochena said.“We immensely regret this error, and following the upcoming runoff election, we will launch an investigation and review of procedures to ensure this never happens again,” election leaders said in a press release.
