Court: Flagged voters must be allowed to cast ballot The state of Georgia must allow persons whose citizenship has been questioned in a new voter verification system the opportunity to cast a ballot in the Nov. 4 elections, a three-judge court ruled Monday. The court also ordered Secretary of State Karen Handel to "make diligent and immediate efforts to notify, in a uniform manner, every person whose voter registration presently remains flagged." Those voters must be told that they can vote by a "challenged ballot," if necessary, and that there is a discrepancy in the voters' registration information, the court said.
