'We Were in the midst of a disaster' Stacey Abrams Debates Suing Over Primary Debacle

Original Article

The one massive problem that Tuesday’s primary brought was massive lines, with people waiting for more than four hours in some places to vote. Both Republicans and Democrats agreed that what happened Tuesday was a big problem, but they don’t agree on who to blame. “As we watched what unfolded today, we knew that we were in the midst of a disaster,” said voting rights activist and former Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

Comments:

She wasn't even on the ballot and she's talking about suing the state. Thing is, in Georgia the local Boards of Elections are responsible for how things are done in their counties. Suing the SOS is pointless.

I suppose this will be characterized as more oppression of black votes- By other blacks! Abrams needs to get her fat butt to the gym and work it off! The fat is migrating to her brain!

Location, location, location. In upstate NYS, I have been voting for decades. I NEVER have had to wait more than a few minutes in any election.. If their LOCAL board of elections is incompetent, then remove the leaders.

I had to wait 4 hours to vote for Reagan in 1980. Seems the place where I voted was very busy as we had to wait in line. I had to travel half way across the city to vote cause the voter registration office screwed up my polling place when I voted for G W in 2000. Both were in Democrat contolled states. Both were the usual operating procedures we have come to expect form Goobernment efficiency. Even the constitution doesn't guarantee the right to a qick vote. Only a quick trail.

I agree with Ralston's statement. But the problem can be easily solved. 1. Photo Voter ID, with some form of bio-metrics. If you need such ID to travel or enter federal buildings, then it MUST be required for voting. 2. All voting MUST be in-person, unless the voter is an actively serving member of the Military. All other voting age citizens must travel back to their precincts and vote, in-person. Employers would simply have to accommodate. A person who refuses to travel, or who chooses to remain away from their voting district, simply doesn't vote. Voting is a privilege of being a citizen, but you can choose to to waive it. 3. Every 10 years, as part of the Census, every voter must confirm their voting status and living address. Any changes of residence must also b confirmed. 4. Only U.S. citizens may vote, whether it is local, state or federal elections, ONLY U.S. citizens may vote. 5. Visitors on work visas are just that - visitors. Illegals shouldn't even be in the country. Whether someone is here legally is ONLY the business of the U.S. and could be handled by immigration services. Give them a provisional green card that they must renew, yearly. They may not receive taxpayer money in the form of welfare. Citizens may voluntarily contribute to a fund to help these people and their families, but NO government controlled funding, EVER! Visitors who break the law are expelled, their legal visitor status revoked for a period not to exceed the prison term they serve. so If they serve 5 years in prison for their crime, they are escorted to the border and are not permitted access to the U.S. for 5 years. Violation of this ban may result in Capital Punishment. Violation of voting by non-citizens, the same - Capital Punishment, or immediate life-time expulsion, unless there is reason to believe they have been misled by Citizens within our borders. Something like the above, should solve most of the issues we're seeing.

The former Georgia gubernatorial candidate has a poor grasp of the English language. First, ''midst'' means there is equal condition on both sides. Second, Disaster has a particular meaning and what she references is neither widespread destruction nor misfortune. Drama mamas always overstate the issue. She is probably unaware of the adage ''better to keep quiet and be thought a fool than open your mouth and confirm it.''

I voted in Cobb county around noon. I took a sunhat and a paperback. Didn't need either. Was in and out in 20 minutes. On the way home I heard some woman on WSB radio wailing that it took her three hours to vote in my city. How? If not by design?

'Voting rights activist' Stacy Abrams???? What, she still trying to say she won the last election she lost??? Although I am curious about the problem...here at home, it took me about 10 minutes to vote...even with our local board consolidating some voting places to save $$...went in (no line), ID'd with drivers license, checked by computer, given a ballot, went to a stand alone terminal, voted, it printed out my choices, I checked it was correct, dropped it into a scanner and left...

Every crisis has a self-reflection point. Six weeks into the coronavirus pandemic, we now have data and information available. We have seen the face of the enemy. Tragically, lives have been lost to the virus, but many victims have survived, and even more Americans have remained healthy through it all. It is time to begin examining what we have done and whether, with the benefit of hindsight, we were right to do it.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) appears to have started to shift his views on the filibuster with remarks that he made on two news shows on Sunday morning.The shift from Manchin comes after he has repeatedly stated that he would not vote to end the filibuster, despite pressure from the far-Left. During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

If you had any doubts that Meghan Markle is a manipulative piece of work, her bombshell Oprah interview Sunday night dumping on the British monarchy would set you straight. Prince Harry’s American wife accused his family of hateful racism against her baby, claimed they refused to protect her and drove her to the point of suicide.She made the incendiary and implausible charge that when she was pregnant with Archie, the royal family decreed that her unborn son would be denied the title of “prince” because her mixed race meant he might have dark skin.

Pelosi’s HR1 bill a blatant power grab for Democrats 30 replies

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s name at a White House event—calling the Pentagon chief “the guy who runs that outfit over there.” Biden was announcing the nomination of two female generals to lead US military combatant commands. “And I want to thank the sec—the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my—the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.(Snip) Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

The Royal Family was left reeling this morning after Meghan Markle tearfully revealed that the stress of royal life made her suicidal when she was five months pregnant, claimed Archie was denied the title of prince because he is mixed-race and said Kate Middleton made her cry before she married Harry in a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.The couple also chose to reveal that they are having a baby girl to the tens of millions of people watching the CBS show broadcast in the US before accusing the Royal Family of racism and revealing the deep rift 'Megxit' has caused with Prince Charles and Prince William.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

Without question, the vast majority of Americans who support former President Donald Trump were angry and frustrated throughout 2020 passed with barely a mention of then-U.S. Attorney John Durham’s criminal investigation into the FBI’s fraudulent “Russiagate” counterterrorism operation directed at his 2016 campaign.In the weeks before the November election, word got out that then-Attorney General William Barr wasn’t going to announce any indictments or even a report on Durham’s investigation because he did not want to influence the outcome.So far, in fact, the only indictment to come out of the Durham probe is that of former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who essentially got a slap on the wrist

Rep. Steve Cohen vowed to renew the push to remove former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover’s name from the bureau’s downtown Washington headquarters, according to an interview released Monday. Appearing on Yahoo! News’ Skullduggery podcast, the Tennessee Democrat said the effort is getting a fresh look after the release of a new movie highlighting the FBI’s secret program to discredit civil rights activists. The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

“There must have been a moment, at the beginning, when we could have said –-no. But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast. His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man. Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
