If MLB feels that they no longer want to have this game played in this sort of environment, more power to them.
Kentucky stayed deep, dark ruby red, with everything turning out exactly as expected, and we reformed our election laws. Every state should look at what went well and what didn’t work in their previous election to improve access and safeguard their elections. Covid made most states do the 2020 election a little different so there was much to discuss.

Georgia elected Republicans got exactly what they deserved with the All star game leaving the state.

You're so woke. Excellent signalling of your virtue. Now actually read the voting law and compare it with other state's laws.

I just read this in a comment section on an article about MLB, and it is too amusing and clever to not repeat:

If you're keeping score, the Georgia GOP is now 0-4 since November. One presidential election, two Senate seats and one MLB All Star Game.

Put another way: no runs, no hits and 4 errors.

He had to save face with his bundlers after the fact.

Yeah, we know exactly who they are.

Fewer jobs for minorities? Because that's the result of the corporate and MLB boycotts. Minorities and those who earn lower incomes are disproportionately harmed the most. Apparently, that's what the left wants. /shrug

It is the long game. Better representation will mean better jobs. Maybe even some more in their state Capitol. Minorities have suffered enough in that state considering their numbers and economic power.

It would be great if they lost a lot of money by lack of attendance. Just don't go.
