There is nothing to ‘protest’. Abrams lost. Crying because your candidate lost isn’t a protest. Do you see the difference? Nowhere did I suggest I don’t support a legitimate protest.

Mindlessly is right.

What they're protesting is that this was not a legitimate election. The guy in charge of the election rules and processes was one of the candidates. That should throw up a HUGE red flag. Well, except in conservatives' minds when the candidate is Republican, as we have found out.

I will say it again...you know damn well that if Stacey Abrams had been the SOS and stayed in office during the election, you would have thrown an absolute fit and put out all sorts of charges of election tampering. Hell, you guys are accusing her of election tampering as it is, but not the guy in charge of the election? Can you be any more obvious?

Find another reason to find fault. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

I did when I looked at her voting record in the GA House over the last 7 years.

Is this actual, proven, voter fraud with evidence, or more of the Trump style "these guys are changing clothes and putting on hats" style of "proving" voter fraud?

Yeah I don't see Hollywood boycotting Georgia. They are too addicted to the generous tax subsidies and cheaper labor pool. When all is said and done Hollywood cares most about making money and it is just more profitable for them to make movies and TV shows in The Peach State

Some of Bernie Marcus' (Home Depot, Georgia Aquarium), comments.

While this boycott amounts to just the latest political stunt for self-indulgent Hollywood, it could have real consequences for Georgia's economy. The state has been dubbed Hollywood of the South, but it is actually the top filming location in the country. Film and television productions generated $9.5 billion in economic impact in 2017, including $2.7 billion in direct marketing and 28,700 jobs. There are about 320 film and television productions shot in the state, including several Marvel movies, Netflix's "Stranger Things" and AMC's "The Walking Dead." Some of these projects now may be in peril because of politics.

The most notable Hollywood types who have used the #BoycottGeorgia hashtag on Twitter have been actress Alyssa Milano (who shot Netflix’s “Insatiable” here), “West Wing” actor Bradley Whitford, actor Steven Pasquale and actor Ron Perlman..."
