People do not need to be given food and water as they wait to vote.

Make the voting easy and accessible so the lines are short enough for people not to need food and water. Duh. If that’s what they are really concerned about. But they just don’t want people to vote. Making it hard and arduous.

PP here. Except for those with obvious disabilities and infirmaties, people are fine.

In that case food and water wouldn’t sway them.

Secretary Raffensperger has worked with legislative partners to propose new legislation that will, first and foremost, take a hatchet to long lines before the ballot box. The new bill will require counties to track wait times and take action if voters have to wait more than an hour to cast their ballot. The counties will measure the wait times at least three times on election day and report those times back to the Secretary of State. If the wait time is longer than one hour, county election officials will be advised to split the precinct, provide more voting equipment, or hire additional poll workers for the next election. In conjunction with added flexibility in how local election officials can allocate equipment, the new policies will provide Georgian voters with the comfort that something is being done about frustrating long lines on election day.

Many of the measures in SB 202 will streamline the election administration process at the local level, such as allowing officials to process absentee ballots sooner, require them to count ballots nonstop once the polls close and allow flexibility with voting equipment for smaller, lower-turnout races. Poll workers could serve in neighboring counties, after the pandemic saw a shortage of trained workers.

Precincts with more than 2,000 voters that have lines longer than an hour at three different points throughout the day have to add more machines, add more staff or split up the poll.

What to happen?

You all are getting your knickers in a bunch about nothing. A few on the left - in politics and in media - have caused this outrage and you have to wonder if any of them actually read the bill.
The worst you have come up with is that people cannot pass out water in line and even that argument has had cold water thrown on it (pun intended).

No. The worst thing about it is the ability of the legislature to overthrow the results if they dont like them.

The banning pizza and water thing is just dickish, petty, and has no good reason

You'll need to link to that in the bill because I am not seeing it.
