That's meaningless without more information. There shouldn't be unlimited drop boxes for a variety of reasons, so a limit absolutely makes sense. Can you give a more detailed explanation of the problem you have with this provision in the law? Citing it would be helpful, btw.
Again, I'm not seeing why this is a problem. Can you explain?
You're going to have to explain why that's bad. The Constitution explicitly delegates election management to the legislatures in the states.
I actually don't know why the SOS typically manages elections. Perhaps this is an opportunity for you to inform, if you know. And if you don't, then I'm not sure why you're complaining about that change in the first place.
The secretary of state in every state is the lead on the vote certification, you can't see a problem in states like Georgia where a partisan legislature appoints a replacement to the board. Raffensperger was the only person standing up to the vote certification. Do you really want legislatures undermining certification of the vote.
Why don't you explain why they needed to replace the secretary of state in the process after all these years.

Why was there all the outrage in 2018 about Kemp, then the SoS, overseeing the election when he was running for Governor?
Seems like a certain group can’t make up its mind if something is good or bad.
And before you make the claim that he should have resigned, Democratic candidates running for Governor have been SoS in Georgia without resigning as well.

Like 1 party blue states like New York, California and Delaware don't have partisan legislature appointing their people to these boards. That only happens in Georgia.

There was most certainly outrage in the 2018 election when Kemp put 50,000 voters on hold, that was a large issue in that election that Kemp narrowly won. I don't recall that ever being an issue in Georgia prior with other SOS's and why the need for that change just before his election.

Boards in NY State and else where are bipartisan as it should be. So why the sudden change in Georgia, do they want the next SOS to find more votes.
