www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com Gwinnett County commissioners Tuesday rejected requests to spend nearly $3 million to make absentee voting easier for residents.
The county’s Board of Registration and Elections asked the government to spend $2.4 million to send absentee ballot applications to all active registered voters in the county, a number they expected could reach 600,000 people.
The board also requested county commissioners spend about $516,000 to pay for return postage on absentee ballots in the county.
Commissioners rejected each proposal in a 3-2 vote, with Republicans voting against the measures and Democrats voting for them. The elected officials did not discuss the reasons for their votes.
