Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp, left, and State Election Board member L. Kent Webb listen as investigators grill Fulton County elections officials on problems with last years presidential elections during a hearing at the Sloppy Floyd building in Atlanta on Thursday, Jan. 31, 2013. A statewide spotlight will be cast on Fulton County's incompetence Thursday when the State Election Board holds a hearing, somewhere at the state Capitol complex, on recent elections problems. Secretary of State Brian Kemp fast-tracked investigations into more than 100 complaints about Fulton's polling problems during last year's presidential contest. The election board, which he chairs, will decide whether to reprimand the county or send cases on to the state Attorney General for possible prosecution.
