Albany, GA, November 7, 2026 —
A critical, previously untallied data card from a Seminole County precinct has significantly impacted the Georgia District 154 House race. The discovery of these votes has reversed the standing, placing incumbent Republican Gerald Greene in the lead over Democratic challenger Harry James.
Following the alteration of the election results, the Georgia Secretary of State’s office has initiated an investigation into the matter. The specific details regarding the untallied data card, including when it was discovered and the precise number of votes it contained, were not immediately available. Similarly, the timeframe for the investigation and its expected duration have not been publicly disclosed.
The District 154 House race has now seen a notable shift in its leadership. Prior to the inclusion of the Seminole County precinct’s votes, Harry James, the Democratic challenger, held the lead. The addition of the untallied votes has resulted in Gerald Greene, the Republican incumbent, overtaking James in the vote count.
The Georgia Secretary of State’s office confirmed the launch of its investigation, aiming to understand the circumstances that led to the data card being uncounted initially. The investigation will focus on ensuring the integrity of the electoral process and determining the accuracy of the final vote tally for District 154. Further updates are expected as the investigation progresses.
