***Oconee And ACC Need Local Legislation For Board Definitions***
Oconee County’s two state House representatives, who also represent parts of Athens-Clarke County, have introduced legislation in the General Assembly to change how the Athens-Clarke County Board of Elections and Registration is constituted.
As is the case in Oconee County, the ACC Board of Elections and Registration at present consists of five voters serving four-year terms, with one member put forward by the county’s Democratic Party, one member put forward by the county’s Republican Party, and three chosen by the County Commission from voters in the county who apply.
