Georgia election officials are trying to find inaccurate voter registrations of people registered at P.O. boxes or business addresses.

ATLANTA - Certification of election results in Georgia is a mandatory duty of local elections officials - not a discretionary decision - the state Court of Appeals has ruled.

A Georgia appeals court has upheld a ruling requiring county election officials to certify results by legal deadlines.

The Georgia Court of Appeals upheld a lower court's ruling that local election board members must certify election results by the deadline outlined in state law, rejecting the argument that they could refuse to certify results if they believed they were inaccurate.

The case was brought by Julie Adams, a member of the Fulton County Board of Elections, who declined to certify some primary results last year. The court ruled that Adams did not have the authority to withhold certification and that state law mandates a uniform process for certifying elections.
