DUBLIN, Ga. (AP) - The former Fulton County elections director who resigned earlier this week has been sentenced to two years of probation after failing to register for drug court.

He was later transferred to Laurens County, where he had been charged with DUI in a 2008 accident with a tractor trailer.
