FILE - A voter leaves a polling site for the presidential primary election, March 12, 2024, in Atlanta. On Thursday, July 11, Georgia's most populous county — Fulton County — which has had a history of voting problems and was a focus of former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, approved a plan for an independent monitor team to oversee this year's general election.

In a July 3 letter to county Board of Commissioners Chair Robb Pitts, Woolard said she took the role in an interim capacity to run the May primary and June primary runoff elections and that “it is time to let someone who can serve through the fall elections take the reins.” Woolard said she has been heartened during her brief return to the helm of the board to see the progress the county has made after years of challenges.

The Fulton election board members briefly discussed two monitoring proposals at Thursday’s meeting. The board voted 3-2, with Woolard joining the two Democratic appointees, to approve one proposal and to reject the other. The proposal they approved, which Woolard said already has the approval of the secretary of state, would cost the county $99,600.
