The Georgia Supreme Court on Tuesday unanimously ruled against the Republican-run state election board, restricting what voting rules it can create.

Two of the most controversial were a rule requiring an additional hand count of all ballots cast on Election Day, and another allowing local election board members to take “reasonable inquiry” before certifying election results.
