[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Over what? Perfectly sensible legislation?  OMG I need an id to vote!? Outrageous! [/quote]

Yes seems like a lot of people are upset about this. Maybe it is time to reevaluate moving away from a system that has worked extremely well to some new radical systems that restricts voting. What happened to conservatives? Pushing for radical changes when no change is needed and requiring state ID/papers to walk down the street. This ID requirement is a very slippery slope to a police state. [/quote]

So, if the GA legislature had not passed this law....
- Drop boxes would have completely gone away since they were only an emergency measure during Covid and not part of GA law.
- Nothing would have been done about the long lines at polling places.  The new law addresses that. 
- The extended weekend voting hours would not be in place since those were not part of GA law. 
- Signature verification for absentee voting would have remained in place - this is more subjective than having an ID number of some type (and the type that is allowed is VERY flexible in GA)

IOW - much of what happened in 2020 was a result of emergency measures.  They were not part of GA law and would have disappeared. [/quote]
