Firm s close ties to Georgia stir concerns about voting system purchase

Jan 31, 2019

The ES S lobbyist, former state Rep. Chuck Harper, now serves as Kemp's deputy chief of staff. Prior to lobbying for ES S, Harper was a lobbyist for the Georgia Secretary of State's Office under Kemp from 2012 to 2017. Kemp's new executive counsel, David Dove, was a member of ES S' advisory board when he attended a Las Vegas conference hosted by the company in March 2017. Dove served as Kemp's chief of staff when he was secretary of state. Kemp chose ES S' voting system for a test run during a Conyers election in November 2017. ES S is Georgia's current election company, responsible for providing technical support and repairs of the state's 27,000 direct-recording electronic voting machines, which the state originally purchased for $54 million from Diebold Election Systems in 2002.
