Of course he does. Even though their laws are not much different from GA's.
It's a blue state so all is well.


And were their laws the result of a false justification? Pushing a lie that didn't happen? Let's be honest here, the situations are not the same.


The lie is what Stacey Abrams and Biden said..... that this is a return to Jim Crow. What a bunch of baloney.


They singled out Fulton County and allow anyone to challenge votes. Hmmm, why Fulton County. The part that is the scariest is that the panel is now appointed by the legislature which is hard right! Also, the poll workers DON'T HAVE TO PROVIDE WATER if they don't want to and then folks are out of luck.

Sorry, racists. I’m going to believe Stacey Abrams and President Joe Biden.

Baseball fans are currently more focused on Nick Castellanos' two-game suspension than on the All-Star Game being moved to Colorado, so I think MLB will be just fine.

Does Colorado legally prohibit you from bringing your grandmother a bottle of water if she unexpectedly has to wait in line for a few hours to vote?


I doubt it. But, neither does Georgia's.

Like GA, Colorado specifically outlaws electioneering/ campaign workers in campaign gear from handing out food and water to waiting voters.

In GA, anyone can give water/snacks to poll workers to distribute.


That is patently false. And if you got that from Fox News or a Republican trying to spin this, they are LYING to you. Read the text of the law. It specifically says that no one can pass out water. It is not restricted to campaigners.

Theyve moved it to a city that is comprised of relatively few people of color. That doesn't seem like a fair or well thought out decision.

So. Moving the all star games to 90% White Denver Helps African Americans?? Atlanta is 90% black. Sending jobs to a white town is a great idea. For racist folks.

The Braves don’t play in Atlanta anymore. They moved to Cobb County which is less than 25% Black.

I see the whole "GA laws are like Colorado's" has hit the right wing attempt at talking points.

Too bad it is provably false.

And the goal here isn't to "help African-Americans," MLB is protesting a state that is limiting voting rights.

Shouldn't we want everyone to be able to lawfully vote as easily as possible?

Yeah, if the GOP thinks Colorado is so restrictive, let’s see GOP-run states adopt all of Colorado’s voting laws, please.

Hyperbole much?

Georgia's entire population is 10.6 million.

In addition, Atlanta is only 51% black. So the first PP clearly needs to find a news source other than OANN, Newsmax and Fox.
