Because the Democrats leveraged their position of political power to give MLB an offer the could not refuse. It is straight up fascism. They are using corporations as tools for the achievement of their political goals and objectives.

And it is not just Major League Baseball, either. This week we saw similar political initiatives by Delta and American Airlines. Of course everyone knows about the aggressively partisan policies and practices adopted by Google, Twitter, Facebook and Amazon.

They are weaponizing every aspect of our society against their political adversaries, effectively without any boundaries or sense of need for restraint.

It was probably a marketing decision. They league would have been constantly criticized for both events, so better to cut their losses and relocate.

The Democrats are going in for the kill. They are taking down our country, right now. This is not about baseball or sports.

Maybe I am missing something, but the only possibility I currently see for saving our nation from these fascists is for the states to pass and implement effective election reform measures. If the states fail to do that, for whatever motive, then we will not have another legitimate presidential election again, and the Democrats will rule unchecked and unaccountable, from now on.

The Democrats know this. These election reform measures are literally our last chance as a nation. The Democrats are firing ALL their weapons in an effort to effectively end any concerns with those pesky presidential elections, once and for all, right now.

This is ballgame.

Big Difference in being empathetic and being stupid and believing everything a movement claims.

It illegal or at least only provisional, unless there is extenuating circumstances. Arizona has pulled back voting in your exact precinct when there are rashes of closing polling locations. This has happened in a lot of primaries dating back to the Michelle Reagan Secretary of State days. This was part of the reason she didn't run in 2018, because she knew she would be voted out. Similarly with COVID, many people voted in generalized locations like sports venues.

How many people know exactly how long their line at their polling place will be. Note, not always by choice or time.

And if the poll worker(s) don't have water, then what?

So, sometimes the times in the Great Clips or Disney Parks apps aren't correct to the current wait time Ina given queue... is there anyway this app will feature up to date times?

Georgia's bill did actually cut down the times that absentee ballots can be sent and how many vote drop-boxes a county can have. So how do these measures help sending in an absentee ballot? And that is before we consider the AZ change to having a scanned copy of your state identification in with your mail-in ballot.

How easily accessible is getting an ID. I'm not sure if this is in the GA bill, but AZ is talking about having a scanned copy of your ID with a mail-in ballot. Despite the fact, you can register to vote at the Motor Vehicle Division, where you get your state issued ID card.

MLB - Don't care. Stop watching Baseball last year.

I don't pander to sissies. Grow a Pair or 2...

This is the only sport—I enjoyed.

That is exactly what the Democrat left is trying to do - to tear our country apart. That is their objective and they will be pleased to count this as a success towards the achievement of that end.
