Georgia election records exposed after algorithmic shuffle flaw

A security flaw in Georgia's ballot scanning system, disclosed in 2022, allows the reversal of the randomization process used to anonymize votes. An independent researcher used AI and public data to reconstruct the order of 1.5 million ballots from Georgia’s May 2026 primary, revealing voter choices in some counties. This breach undermines the secrecy of ballots and exposes vulnerabilities in election security measures.
