The state's top elections official stood out by refusing help from the Department of Homeland Security in August 2016 amid national concerns about the integrity of U.S. elections. His assurances have threatened to become a liability as he runs for governor after new details emerged about major security mistakes at the center managing Georgia's election technology. Kemp announced Friday, July 14, 2017, that he plans to bring the center's operations in-house within a year. (AP Photo/John Amis, File)
