Department of Justice monitors elections

The United States Department of Justice will be monitoring elections in Georgia. The U.S. Attorney's Middle District office in Macon will be staffed by an assistant U.S. attorney on Election Day, until the polls close. He will be responsible for handling any complaints by voters and election officials. The FBI will also have special agents available in field offices across the state to help handle allegations of fraud and voter suppression. The Northern and Southern Districts will have similar staff on hand.
