You clearly didn't read the bill and believe the Democrats' idiotic lies about it.
Or the fact that true blue NY state already had this law in place.

It's a fake narrative.

Untrue. It's clearly you who didn't read the bill.

You're wrong. Period. Your BIG mistake is believing how the lefty msm tried to spin it. I've posted this info before, but here you go, again...

It is not illegal in GA to provide food and/or drink to those waiting in line at the polls. What IS illegal is electioneering while doing so. Here is the specific passage in SB 202, the only one in which food and drink is mentioned:

"Section 33

Said chapter is further amended by revising subsections (a) and (e) of Code Section 21-2-414, relating to restrictions on campaign activities and public opinion polling within the vicinity of a polling place, cellular phone use prohibited, prohibition of candidates from entering certain polling places, and penalty, as follows:

(a) No person shall solicit votes in any manner or by any means or method, nor shall any person distribute or display any campaign material, nor shall any person give, offer to give, or participate in the giving of any money or gifts, including, but not limited to, food and drink, to an elector, nor shall any person solicit signatures for any petition, nor shall any person, other than election officials discharging their duties, establish or set up any tables or booths on any day in which ballots are being cast:

(1) Within 150 feet of the outer edge of any building within which a polling place is established;

(2) Within any polling place; or

(3) Within 25 feet of any voter standing in line to vote at any polling place."

The lesson to be learned, here? DON'T believe the LIES Democrats and their msm sycophants tell you. They assume you're stupid and think they can trick you into believing their lies. And you fell for it. Stop that.

Actually, any election is a government granted privilege.
If there was no government, why would anyone vote, in or out of government?


Calling it a right only confuses people.

The Supreme Court stopped private business mandates saying it was unconstitutional. Could they also stop this voting rights bill? You know it will get passed one way or another. Dems are nasty and know how to sneak it in somewhere somehow. They need to get this passed and they are extremely desperate.

Prove it because it is more lies from the far right when they lose but do not mention it when they win elections with mail-in ballots. Why is it only problematic when Republicans lose? Nobody can answer to the hypocrisy...

Unless the voting amendments aren't ruled unconstitutional, this shouldn't be. It is entirely different than the bad mandates.

There is no spin. The plain English of the law which you are unable to comprehend is you can't give out food or water to people standing in line. According, to your spin, the State of GA set up their election officials to police volunteers possibly associated with a campaign vs Joe Blow dropping off water for his mom standing inline in GA's notoriously long lines designed for black voters.
