A new committee is set to begin work on selecting Georgia's next statewide election system. The committee's first meeting is scheduled for next week, bringing together lawmakers, election officials, and other members to explore options.

Further details on the committee's work and the future of Georgia's election system are available from Rough Draft Atlanta, which is following the development of this story in intown neighborhoods and beyond.
