A memory card never entered the US Seminole County election system. This change disrupted a district election in the Georgia State House of Representatives. Originally expected to be taken by the Democratic Party, current Republican Congressman Gerald E. Greene now leads Democratic candidate Harry James by 262 votes. This omission was revealed when the southwestern Georgia county carried out routine post-election inspections. This may reduce the Democratic Party's hard-won majority in the state House of Representatives — this is the first time in more than 20 years that the Democratic Party is expected to control the house. County election officials discovered that this memory card was not uploaded to the county election management system. There was a difference between the number of voters who signed in at the polling stations and the number of votes reported by the system: the number of people who signed in was about 388 more than the number of votes counted. After the ballots on the memory card were recorded, Greene's election was completely reversed. Before the memory card was added and counted, Greene was 58 votes behind; after the refill, it surpassed 262 votes. After the vote count was updated, it was officially revealed that Greene was in the lead. The election situation in the 154th constituency is one of the key struggles to determine control of the state House of Representatives in this election.
