A few months removed from the 2022 election cycle, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger says Georgia voters are happy and pleased.

“We had stronger turnout in November 2022 than we did November 2020 and that was a presidential election,” said Raffensperger on Monday’s edition of “Closer Look.”  

He talked to show host Rose Scott that Senate Bill 202 and House Bill 316 go hand and hand and have contributed to Georgia voters being more confident in the voter process.
