  1. Think about it this way. ive always had all of the other things that you need to get a photo ID. Birth certificate, SS card, proof of residency, credit cards in my name, but just never got an actual Photo ID. At the time, Wells Fargo and I believe PNC bank, only required 2 credit cards in your name, your SS card, and maybe your BC to cash a check. So, there’s nothing fraudulent about it at all. I had other forms of ID and never needed a photo ID. This is also when credit cards had your photo on it. And yes, it is a problem, because voting is a right that doesn’t require a photo ID, along with a lot of other things, and a few million people wouldn’t be able to exercise that right. You’re trying to fix a problem that doesn’t exist. Why not pass a law that says you need “some” form of ID? No, that’s not what they’re trying to do and everyone knows exactly why.
  2. There’s honestly dozens of reasons why a person might not have an ID on Election Day that I had no idea about until I moved to the beach in the South.
  3. Yeah, I kept telling myself that was going to get one and then 7 years went by. I had an out of state license that was taken away and I just never needed to get one. The other issue is that the license places are all privatized throughout the south so when you actually go to get an ID, you don’t walk out with one. It’s mailed to you in about 2 weeks. So, if you physically lose your ID before an election, you’d be seriously SOL.
  4. I actually put this to the test a few years back. I was born in the north and I was always under the impression that ID’s are needed for almost everything. Maybe that was because I lived kinda out of the way. I recently went 7 years in NC without an ID. When you don’t have one, and don’t want one, you quickly realize that you don’t actually need one for much of anything these days. Now I understand why millions of americans(young and old) don’t have and don’t want an ID. I lived in Smyrna(right near ATL) for 5 years. off topic but weird story. I was working in mid-town Atlanta for a valet service during the Rams/Titans SB. Remember what happened that night? The Ray Lewis thing went down 2 blocks away from my post. It was in Buckhead.
  5. Well, Republicans do the same exact thing outside of every church in America. They just don’t want “certain” people to vote. Being a registered voter is all you should need to vote. That’s what it’s for. You walk in, give your name, date of birth, and home address, and they hand you a ballot. This whole idea that random people are walking in and using other voter’s names and memorizing the addresses of total strangers has always been totally ludicrous. And no, Ga. actually doesn’t have much of a safety net at all. It’s just like Florida and SC.
  6. An under-incarceration problem? LMAO. What in the world was he thinking? He must hold stock in private prisons. Major screw up. Not that it really matters tho. He has no change of obtaining higher office.
  7. Ballot ID numbers of the voter’s personal ID number? Voting is a right therefore it’s illegal to require an ID or ID number to vote.
  8. The funniest part about Georgia is that Trump got butchered and then both R senators lost also afterwards, which basically confirmed that the numbers were exactly right and ended Donald’s fake narrative.
  9. It can happen at the local level where the election is decided by less than 1000 votes. Republicans were caught in NC in that House race that was really close. Safeguards were out into place after that. That was more of a “ballot harvesting” scenario. senate or presidential level? Nope.
  10. What ads are people talking about? I don’t see any on my end.
  11. I don’t mind paying, I just don’t like 50 companies having my card info and any info really. If I could mail Tim Graham a roll of quarters I would prefer that.
  12. But it doesn’t actually do that at all. It’s basically impossible to commit voter fraud on a meaningful scale and you know that. Each ballot is secure and mailed to the voter at their home address. What you’re actually saying is that millions of ballots are being stolen out of people’s locked mailboxes by random people who intend to fraudulently fill out those ballots. Think about how silly that is.
  13. The only reason to match signatures is to throw out votes. That’s not a new tactic only used in Georgia. It’s been deployed for years along with purging people from voter rolls if they don’t respond quickly enough to something they mail to you. The list goes on and on....
  14. It’s not a secret what the GOP has been doing. I was in conference calls with other consultants discussing these suppression tactics way back in 2003! At the end of the day, they’ll just have to pass a voting rights act federally and make it all go away.
  15. Truth is, we really have no idea how bad Florida is right now. With how they behaved over the last year, decreasing testing, changing how cases and hospitalizations are counted, changing or not providing “cause of death”, there’s no way for anyone to really know. All that we know is that it isn’t good at all.
  16. it’s amazing to me that folks are still trying to defend Florida. This is a state that just spent 10 out of last 12 months purposely testing as few people as possible each day to keep case numbers down. Now that the stimulus passed, which includes money for testing, it’s no surprise at all that their numbers are going through the roof. It’s about to get a whole lot worse too!
  17. I got my 2nd dose today so I’m ready to purchase tickets from unvaccinated people that won’t be able to attend. Woohoo! The side-effects were pretty minimal. It was totally worth the gamble. I think I can cover up this horn-like growth protruding from my head with a large fedora. I’ll see you at the “stadium.”
  18. Darnold had everything removed from the walls so the ghosts couldn’t hide behind the paintings.
  19. It’s the 4th worst state right now. Florida will likely be the last state to fully recover. https://www.eatthis.com/news-states-concerning-covid-spikes-experts/
  20. My mother wouldn’t be able to sleep at night If I did that. She’s be in my house while I’m at work hanging things on the wall. Mom, it’s minimalism! Nope, that wouldn’t fly at all.
  21. Is there a breakdown as to which games were the worst and where? I can’t really take any Florida numbers seriously since they’ve been lying/hiding their cases the entire time. They also decreased their testing throughout the year.
  22. “I think everybody should have that choice to do it or not to do it,” Allen said. “You get in this tricky situation now where if you do mandate that that’s kind of going against what our constitution says and the freedom to kind of express yourself one way or the other. I think we’re in a time where that’s getting a lot harder to do. Everybody should have that choice.” Express yourself?
  23. That very well may be the landscape by September. I guess it depends on how quickly children get vaccinated. Restrictions will probably change as the season progresses.
  24. From the looks of it, some concerts (arenas, stadiums, amphitheaters) will be happening in the month of August so the NFL will have that data and the used procedures to look at before the season starts. Vaccinated folks will get the go-ahead and tickets should be easier to get since 30 percent of fans won’t be able to attend.
