DeKalb County Elections Director Erica Hamilton resigned Thursday, roughly a month after she was placed on an extended leave of absence by elections board leaders.

The five-member board voted unanimously to accept Hamilton’s resignation during a called special meeting. Election Board chairperson Dele Lowman Smith also announced the board will begin a nationwide search for Hamilton’s permanent replacement, along with a new deputy director position.

No explanation was given for Hamilton’s leave of absence at the time, and election board members didn’t provide any details Thursday.

In a statement, Lowman Smith said, “The Board thanks Ms. Hamilton for her service to the DeKalb County voters, and we wish her well in her next professional chapter.”

Oh I’m sure she’s not gone. They’ll reward her by finding a spot somewhere a little less visable.

“the board will begin a nationwide search for Hamilton’s permanent replacement,”

Nationwide. I wonder what Georgians think about that.

Just go to the Georgia State Pen and you find a perfect new election director.

She did her job. Time for her to move on.

It’s Dekalb County, Ga, she’ll be replaced by someone just as, if not more, corrupt.

Why not a Worldwide search for a Chinese IT expert to run elections in Georgia?

It’s not like THAT hasn’t been done before, right? I wonder if Raffensperger and Kemp have hefty balances in their offshore accounts in China.
