How can anyone say that the new voting laws in Georgia are not designed to suppress the vote?
I have no problem with ID verification but let's look at what the law is trying to do to suppress the vote
1. Limiting mail in voting is designed to suppress the vote
2. Limiting the hours that holding locations will be open is designed to suppress the vote
3. Limiting the amount of polling locations and drop boxes is designed to suppress the vote
4. Having the governor be able to have a special board that he picks to oversee elections is designed to compromise elections which suppresses the vote
5. Trying to eliminate early voting as designed to suppress the vote
6. We are still in a pandemic more locations longer hours are needed and in general it's needed because you would want every vote to get count , you would want everyone to be safe
7. Making it a misdemeanor to give someone food or drink while they're in line is designed to suppress the vote
8. Trying to eliminate the Sunday voting the souls to the polls is designed to suppress the vote
The bill literally says it will reduce the hours. And it's designed to reduce the hours for Georgia to suppress Democratic votes. New York is a democratic stronghold so even if their votes get the suppressed they still going to win the state. And even still regardless of what another state is doing suppression is wrong so rather than have a race to the bottom argument the idea is to make voting accessible for everybody that is eligible
