Georgia election laws and MLB

In a stunning turn, a liberal tries to get you to stop speaking the truth by shouting "racist."

Isn’t there supposed to be some form

of integrity when it comes to voting? Checks and balances in the process? The blue counties and election boards have been castrated with this bill.

 

We will never be able to remove the racist nature of this bill - but not focusing on the true issue of this bill - the outright power grab is ludicrous.

 

And yes - all the memes and tweets that GQP supporters posting here highlighting the disparities of voting laws between blue and red states drives home the point that universal voting laws are required.

 

Just curious - do you think gerrymandering should be removed as a tool for both parties?

Of course there needs to be election integrity but in Georgia the basic premise of voter identification is being cast as some sort of race issue where polls taken of American citizens reveal a majority of citizens of all races across the political spectrum support the concept.  And objections based on the ability of voters to get ID can be easily resolved.  

 

Stating the legislation is racist is purely subjective opinion.  There is no explicit mention of race such as those found in "separate but equal laws of the past" in any shape or form.  Many are inferring race for many reasons.  Mostly self-serving.  Why do white liberal thinkers believe they need to play "Nanny" to minority voters?  Are minority voters inherently incapable of having valid ID's or navigating through the process here and somehow white voters are better equipped to understand and act here?  That's pretty insulting (and racist too!).  

 

Article 1 Section 4 of the Constitution grants the States the right for setting election rules, times, and places and while many believe as you do in some national standard any such legislation would likely makes its way through the courts through various legal challenges.

I thought you walked away... dejected because you believe racism is a fantasy.

 

You can call me all the names in the book Jim - I don’t care. 

 

FWIW, my reply above was to a different poster on this board.

 

I believe racism is a fantasy?  When you've lost an argument to resort to making things up.  Wait no, that makes sense.  Your argument from the get go was the result of make believe. Carry on bigot.  

 

Oh and BTW I walked away because arguing with someone who's only argument is make believe and cannot come up with any actual evidence to support their claim it's kind of a waste of time.

Rabbit hole

There is absolutely no need to keep having this conversation w you.

 

We will have to agree to disagree.

[BillStime]

214 voting sites closed - thus forming long lines in targeted areas - none reopened - and all by design.
 

Oh - and drink n food distribution added just so no one can influence a voter - who showed and chose to stand in a nine hour line.

I see. You call me a racist and a white supremacist and you want me to just agree to disagree?  I think not.  Those are quite horrible accusations with nothing but feels to back it up.  You're whole argument is based on feels.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with that if you at least admit it.  Something along the lines of "have have no definitive proof this Bill is racists.  I just feels that way to me."  I'd accept that.

Food and drink are allowed and actually stipulated in the Bill. You know this, I've mentioned this, I've quoted the Bill regarding this but for some reason you keep brining up this false narrative.  It's getting old and foolish.

 

You never answered my question. You never do while I answer all of yours.  So let's try them again.

 

1.  If, let's say, all 214 of the polling sites were "forced" to reopen in this Bill would you still consider it racist and if so why?

 

2.  Were only black people in these long lines?  Sorry I'll answer this one for you.  No need to read the articles just look at the accompanying pictures.

I'm not trying to convince anyone.  You are so wrapped up in this you have no idea of my argument.  I am asking those that say it's racist to convince us that think it's not that it is.  The onus is on you.

Jim - you have been bating people non stop about racism on this site and this thread. You are the only one asking people to debate you everyday.

You couldn’t wait for someone to call you Chef Jim Crow so you could play the victim to distract from your obsession w race. That’s what you wanted.

 

Just because the facts presented don’t meet your race threshold - that ls too damn bad.

 

And yea go back to your safe place - send Ann and DR my best.

This board is all about debate.  

 

I wanted someone to call me Chef Jim Crow??  Oh yes that was the happiest thing that ever happened to me.  I wanted to be a victim?  Here's the difference between you and me.  And it's a BIG difference.  You tell people what is in their minds and hearts (i.e. calling me a racist and a white supremacist and say I don't think racism exists or is a fallacy) where I ask questions to get that drawn out. Can you see the difference?  You have ZERO idea how pissed off I am at SectionC3 for calling me Chef Jim Crow.   But go ahead think I relish in that.  Conservatives typically don't play the victim card.  That is usually left for those of the liberal persuasion.  

 

The facts do not meet anyone's threshold for racism.  The key word there is facts.  You have none, you've presented none and until you do your claim of racism (in this Bill) will never hold water.  I'm not the only one that feels that way.  I am not the only that feels strongly that we will never reduce (unfortunately it will never be eliminated) racism if we keep shining bright lights on false narratives of racism and shining it away from true racism like I have witnessed in my life.  This is why I've been so passionate about this.  The fact that you can't see from where that passion comes from is not surprising.  You've not asked, you've not dug deep you've not tried to figure out what I come from with this subject as I have with you.  I would have lots of stories to tell you. True stories while you've got feels.  

 

Go back to my "safe space"?  Haven't been there in weeks.  And you don't know why do you?  That's because you're going on feels not facts.  Carry on.....

I already answered question 1 - once a racist; always a racist.

 

And all the links you provided were for just the 2020 election?  Georgia has had long lines for YEARS - go back further Jim - you can do it.

 

You can find the voting sites that were closed - and see how most are aligned with very targeted areas.  You can do it.

Back to the thread...........

 

 

Gov. Brian Kemp signed the bill on March 31. Certain provisions will go into effect on July 1:

 

• Special ballots will be created for nonpartisan elections
• Ballots must be printed in black and white ink on security paper
• A cutoff date of 11 days before a primary, general election or runoff election for mail-in ballot applications
• A deadline for the issuance of absentee ballots at least 25 days before a federal primary, general election or special election or 22 days before a municipal general election or primary
• A Georgia state driver's license number, ID card number, date of birth and the last four digits of a social security number or another approved form of identification must be printed on the outside of an absentee ballot
• Conditions for rejecting absentee ballots if certain requirements are not met

What about early voting?

The law expands in-person early voting for general elections, according to The AJC. Two early-voting periods are required on a Saturday for each county, with optional voting on Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (hours may be extended to 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.).

 

In prior elections, early voting began on the fourth Monday before a primary or election and ended the Friday before an election day, according to the state's official website. For runoff elections, voting began as soon as possible before election day. 

 

Some leaders of Georgia's Black churches say the new schedule will affect voting after church services, also known as "souls to the polls."

 

The voting period for runoff elections was also shortened from nine weeks to four weeks.

 

Refreshments for voters waiting in line

The law bans people aside from poll workers from soliciting votes or signatures from voters. The distribution or display of campaign materials is also restricted to 150 feet of the "outer edge" of a polling location or within 25 feet of a person waiting in line to vote. Offering money and gifts – including food or drink – to a voter is prohibited. In a rebuke of the proposal last month, Georgia Senate Minority Leader Gloria Butler, a Democrat, said Republican lawmakers "want to make it a crime to bring Grandma some water while she’s waiting in line.”

 

Voters have waited hours in long lines at polling places in recent elections,  especially in Black neighborhoods. 

Poll officers are permitted to distribute materials encouraging voter participation as required by law. Officers may also make self-service water available to voters.

 

Training for poll watchers

Training provided by the political party, political body or candidate designating the poll watcher is a prerequisite for qualifying for or being appointed a poll watcher. Those responsible for designating poll watchers must attest to their training under oath.

 

New rules for ballot drop boxes

A board of registrars or absentee ballot clerk may supply one drop box for absentee by mail voters at the respective offices or inside advanced voting locations. Additional drop boxes are restricted to one per 100,000 active registered voters in a county or the number of advanced voting locations. The boxes are only accessible during advanced voting. 

 

The number of drop boxes for Georgia's four most populous counties, Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb and Gwinnett, will drop from 94 in 2020 to 23 in 2022, according to The Times.

 

Deadlines for tabulating absentee ballots

Elections superintendents must report the returns of verified and accepted absentee ballots by 5 p.m. the day following an election day. In the event of a missed deadline, the State Election Board may convene to conduct an independent review.

 

In prior elections, absentee ballots were accepted until 7 p.m. on an election day. The law allowed a week to finalize and certify the final vote count, according to the AJC.

This game is old Jim. You have your beliefs and I have mine.  There has been a consistent and systematic attempt to disenfranchise voters in Georgia; a state with a long history of discrimination - if that wasn't true; no GQP would support this bill.

 

Straws me a$$

 

Why Do Nonwhite Georgia Voters Have To Wait In Line For Hours? Too Few Polling Places

 

Democracy Diverted: Polling Place Closures and the Right to Vote

 

Georgia, a state where 31 percent of the population is African American and 9 percent is Latino, has 214 fewer polling places. Georgia stands out because its counties have closed higher percentages of voting locations than any other state in our study. The top five closers of polling places by percentage were Georgia counties: The top three counties in the state were Lumpkin (89 percent closed); Stephens (88 percent closed); and Warren, which is 61 percent African American (83 percent closed). Bacon County, which is 15 percent African American, and Butts County, which is 28 percent African American, tied with 80 percent closed. Seven counties with major polling place reductions now have only one polling site to serve hundreds of square miles. In a February 2015 memo, the office of Brian Kemp, who was then serving as Georgia’s secretary of state, encouraged counties to consolidate voting locations. He specifically spelled out twice — in bold font — that “as a result of the Shelby vs. Holder [sic] Supreme Court decision, [counties are] no longer required to submit polling place changes to the Department of Justice for preclearance.”

This shows that overall baseball took a large hit from this decision. What I find most interesting is that baseball of all the sports seems the most linked to old conservative fans, NBA doing it makes much more sense than MLB.

For the 2020 election, there were 94 drop boxes across the four counties that make up the core of metropolitan Atlanta: Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb and Gwinnett. The new law limits the same four counties to a total of, at most, 23 drop boxes, based on the latest voter registration data. The number could be lower depending on how many early-voting sites the counties provide.

Does anyone know how many drop boxes there were in 2016?  Was this maybe a covid thing?

They had no choice. The players likely would’ve threatened to protest and not play. 
 

It’s never a bad decision to be on the right side of history on a no-brainer like this issue.

It is amazing that you can see being completely political as a no brainer. You might be pretending it is a civil rights idea but many liberal states have more restrictions on voting so that would simply be pointing out your ignorance.

We get it. You don’t want certain people to vote. That’s being on the wrong side of history. Mail-in voting is here to stay.
