Perry Greene said he "heard from a lot of people" who experienced a similar issue with their ballot. It's not known how many other voters experienced trouble casting their ballots in Georgia, though the Secretary of State acknowledged that "many mistakes were made."
The Georgia secretary of state's office provided information that they say shows Floyd County was at fault handling the 2020 election ballot of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's ex-husband Perry Greene.
Last week, the congresswoman posted on her account on X, about how her then-husband, Perry Greene, went to cast a ballot at a polling station in the 2020 general election but was told that he had already voted absentee.
Perry Greene verified his ex-wife's account directly to Just the News on Friday, adding that he signed a "Cancel Ballot Affidavit" form, on which he wrote, "I did not request one!!" and was able to cast an in-person early vote ballot.
Early vote ballots are called in-person absentee ballots in Georgia.
On Tuesday, the secretary of state's office provided a screenshot of Perry Greene's voting history, including an audit history, which shows the user ID of the person who issued his ballot.
Pdf Mike Hassinger, a public information officer with the Georgia secretary of state's office said in a statement on Tuesday, "These screenshots of audit logs from the voter registration system show that a county worker took action to issue a ballot for the voter at 4:03PM on October 23, 2020. They subsequently canceled that ballot. Then, 5 minutes later at 4:08PM, they issued another ballot to the voter and successfully checked in the voter to allow him to vote advanced in-person."This suggests that the first issuance of a ballot at 4:03PM was likely poll worker error.
Floyd County explained in July 2022 that the Georgia secretary of state's database appeared to have "an error in the system" that showed Perry Greene had voted prior to casting his ballot, according to email correspondence between his lawyer and a Floyd County attorney regarding an open records request.
