That would be illegal to vote in the senate runoff.

Democrats moving to Georgia to vote in the Senate races

The headline is misleading. It's not about newcomers relocating to vote.

The issue is that campaign workers travel to states to work on campaigns. Both political parties do that. Between the two parties it could be hundreds of people.

In case nobody has though of it before, does anyone know WHY both parties are soliciting donations for the races right now? To fund campaigns, of course. These people are what that money is for, they will be very busy and need motels to stay in, meals and salaries. It's expensive.

The Republicans are pulling in people from around the country, including attorneys no doubt, and so are the Democrats. It has always been this way. So it's not 'carpetbagging', it's electioneering 101. Always like that.

Please tell me you're being sarcastic.

By the way, I used to live in the Atlanta area. Never saw any zombies.

Look up the facts for yourself instead of blindly repeating DNC talking points.
Right, Trump followed the constitution in appointing a Supreme Court Justice during his term in office.

Something Obama wasn't allowed to do, even though it was his right as a sitting president.

Anyone who says otherwise is a bald faced liar, too.

You are the one believing lies if you can't accept actual facts about how McConnell stole a Supreme Court seat - which by the way, he boasts about, and doesn't deny
Abe Fortas never got a hearing and the Democrats controlled the Senate.

Harriet Meiers withdrew her nomination because the senate told W. they would not approve her.

There are lots of other examples of people who never got hearings and votes.

Learn the facts and stop spreading lies.

You just keep spreading lies.

The Democrats have been asking people to do it on their Facebook page.

He nominated. The senate said no. That has happened many times before. Those are the facts. I don't know why you people have such difficulty understanding.
