Channel 2′s Audrey Washington spoke to Raffensperger at the Cobb County Board of Elections Office in Marietta on Tuesday, where he said political differences should be handled at the ballot box, not with violence.
“That’s not how politics are supposed to go in America,” Raffensperger said.
Raffensperger encouraged voters to handle their political disputes by voting, and joined the Vet the Vote program on Tuesday to recruit more veteran poll workers.
“Come out and serve your country one more time, be a poll worker,” Raffensperger said.
However, a Paulding County poll worker told Channel 2 Action News that she’s still got concerned, even after working the polls.
“I’ve been a poll watcher since 2022 and I’ve been a poll worker since 2023,” Keisha Frelod said. “Election integrity, to make sure all votes count.”
On Tuesday, Raffensperger assured voters that the state has fair and accurate elections. Channel 2 Action News was there as he observed the voting machines in the Cobb elections office, saying it was a “health check.”
“Verifying all the equipment has not been tampered with and accurately recording all the votes,” Raffensperger explained.
Recruitment for the Vet the Vote program is still going. Anyone interested in the program can learn more online here.
