In Georgia, a judge placed a temporary restraining order on Doughterty County results on November 9 as, among other things, some of the 14,000 absentee ballots were allegedly re-routed through Tallahassee due to Hurricane Michael, resulting in a delay to the county election office certifying its results.[118][119] On November 17, Georgia Secretary of State Robyn Crittenden certified the election result, a day after the restraining order expired.[119]
