I am in the process of swapping light switches and currently there is no ground wire connected to old switch. It looks like there may be bare ground wire pushed to very back of box. Is it likely connected to anything? Is there another way to add a ground for new switch? Thanks823729B0-E09B-4043-BBFB-E78E976C4E48.jpeg
