A series of proposed election rule changes by the State Election Board may be unconstitutional, according to the Attorney General's office.

Georgia's Republican-controlled state election board may vote on Friday to require a labor-intensive hand count of potentially millions of ballots in November's election, a move voting rights advocates say could cause delays,

One measure, to be voted on Friday, would require hand counting of ballots. Critics say that it would create widespread confusion in a state pivotal to the presidential race.

Any rules adopted by the Georgia's controversial State Election Board on Friday will go into effect after overseas and military ballots have started to go out and just as early voting is about to begin.

The state election board was recently taken over by a conservative majority. Its latest proposals are dangerously late in the process and most likely illegal, according to the secretary of state.

The Georgia State Election Board is set to vote on a controversial measure Friday that would require local precincts to conduct hand counts.
