A bill that would end no-excuse absentee voting in Georgia survived a key procedural step, with the Georgia Senate voting to advance the omnibus election legislation.
Whelp. The GA GOP just did it. Jim Crow v2.
This wonāt end well for them.
āThe arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justiceā.
Apparently not in Georgia.
I said already someone is going to add a change in polling hours, so that if your a shift worker who isnāt a police officer, fire fighter, or in the medical field, youāre gonna get screwed, and at the very least make it way harder to vote.
There is apparently no-excuse for the Georgia GQP.
Paging Stacey Abramsā¦
Hateful. But these Republicans are not the only people in Georgia. They forgot that Part.
The Georgia GQP is leading the charge back to the segregation era where Blacks were mostly unable to vote.
Fulton County has the water-main and truckloads of ballots ready to go.
What I would suggest is this: not only people but other social institutions more concerned with living in a modern location get in the act. There are 21st Century individualsāand organizationsāin GA.
Itās the Blacks own fault, they insist on remaining in the Democrat plantation. If the voted republican like Clarence Thomas & Vernon Jones, none of this would be necessary.
Biden needs to get the new voting rights act passed this term before the GQP institutionalizes republican-only voting.
The GA GOP and the GOP in general is like a person on a life raft that is slowing sinking . . .
They will try anything to survive, but ultimately, they will sink and drown.
This will backfire. People who get a convenience or benefit rarely like having it taken away.
I agree. The GA Republicans are waving a red flag in front of their voters. They better be careful or they will be gored.
Losers gonna lose. Trumps desperate bid to bilk the stupid GOP masses is slipping away faster than sands through the hour glass.
Man, theyāre really determined to tax Alito, Thomas, Roberts, Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Gorsuchās creative and denial abilities to the limit when VRA section 3 is finally reimplemented based on new findings of fact about how Republican legislatures got busy the second Roberts declared racism over.
If the Democrats do manage the pass the Voting Rights Act before 2022, I assume it will be immediately challenged, yes? Also, would it supersede new state laws?
ā¦ In texas, with a hand-picked Trump judge, who will promptly declare it unconstitutional and put an injunction in place preventing it from taking force and setting up that years-long process to get to the supremesā¦
Federal law always supersedes state law.
Iām assuming the Democrats know this could/will happen so what then?
