Kudos to Raffensperger for efficient voting system

I voted early in my designated precinct and, despite a fairly large turnout, casting my ballot went like clockwork. The efficiency was remarkable, and my family was in and out in less than 20 minutes. I could not have felt any more secure in and trustworthy of the system counting my vote.

I will proudly admit I am a lifelong Democrat, but I also strongly believe in giving credit where credit is due. Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is to be commended on the efficiency of the voting system in Georgia. As Georgians, we should all be proud and honored for the reliable voting process he has created in our state. Though I might not agree with his policies, what he has done in terms of voting in Georgia despite enormous unjustified pressure warrants a strong consideration from every Georgian to vote for him for whatever office he decides to run next. This voter certainly will. His actions are emblematic of a true profile in courage. Great job, Mr. Raffensperger. Keep up the good work!

Grant Park precinct ran like ‘well-oiled machine’

During two weekends of early voting, I was a poll watcher for one of the major parties. What I observed at the Grant Park polling location was nothing short of a well-oiled machine. Every step was executed by friendly, efficient and well-trained poll workers.

The privacy of the voter and the vote is guaranteed because no one other than the voter handles the ballot from the time of voting, printing and depositing the ballot in the secure ballot box. From the time of entering the building until exiting, the voting process is secure and easy.

Anyone who questions the security of Fulton County voting should get trained and then sit as a poll watcher just once.
