Republican lawmakers in Georgia have muscled legislation through the state House that would roll back voting access.
It was passed over the objection of Democrats and civil rights groups gathered at the Capitol to protest. The bill comes after record turnout led to Democratic wins in Georgia’s presidential election and two U.S. Senate runoffs.
House Bill 531 passed 97-72 and now goes to the state Senate for more debate. The far-reaching bill would require a photo ID for absentee voting, limit the amount of time voters have to request an absentee ballot and limit early voting hours on weekends.
Georgia's branch of the ACLU has decried the bill.

The nerve of them!!!! Oh well, we'll just call them a bunch of white racists -- that scares them into submission every time!!!!

Just getting back to where the law was before judges illegally changed it. And the more the hard looney left complains, the more I like it!

you mean the "record turnout" of blank ballots and ballots harvested from vacant building and other assorted places?

Now PA needs to repeal Act 77 that allows no excuse; fraudulent mail in ballots. I don't believe PA legislators have the stomach for it.

What do they mean it will roll back voting access? You mean dead people and those living out of state will no longer be able to vote? What an outrage! You have to show an ID to vote? That sounds like voter suppression. According to leftists, everyone has a right to vote, including the dead, illegal aliens, out of state citizens, absentee voters who vote multiple times, and others; all of whom are stealing and canceling the votes of ordinary American citizens.
They keep telling us how important it is to vote and that it is our voice in our government, and then tell us that any attempt to verify honest and fair elections is voter suppression. Their cognitive dissonance is truly astounding.

Here's what President Trump outlined in his speech on Sunday. We should start getting this to our state and national lawmakers ....
One election day
The only vote by mail is for the proven sick, out of the country or in the military
Eliminate mass mail in voter
We must have voter ID
Universal signature matching for absentee voting
100% requirement to verify the citizenship for every vote
A chain of custody for every ballot
Cannot change election rules outside of the state legislatures, as required by the Constitution of the US
End the censorship of free political speech; end big tech monopoly and 230.

Georgia's election was fraught with fraud. They need to fix it. I have a friend who is a British citizen residing near Atlanta. She received three. yes three. mail in ballots. She destroyed them as an honest person. How many other recipients have done the same? It is a disgrace that the Supreme Court rejects hearing cases of fraud an incompetence. If they don't want to ensure the fundamental premise of how our governing system works then they need to be replaced.

Its called guaranteeing LEGAL voting. You know guaranteeing your vote counts and is not negated by voter fraud. And if you can't get a photo id, if you're that freakin stupid you have no right to vote. Democrats do one thing, CHEAT. Play the race card and cheat. Well, tell ya what, people are sick and tired of hearing that same bullsh**. Either get over it or get out.

When I read the headline, I knew in an instant this was "Liberal Speak", then asking myself, who would write this crap? Then my eyes turned to the line under the headline... and I had my answer, the commie AP!
No logic, no reasoning, no truth, no facts, just commie B.S.

So, you need an ID to show who you are to get the vaccine, and show it multiple times if you're at one of those massive vaccine sites.
Mass mailing of ballots without any real understanding of the accuracy of those being sent to the proper person sound more like mail fraud being done by election officials.
I heard a gentleman on the radio yesterday who had moved from California years ago, even provided them with the update on his vehicle registration to the new state across the country. Yet, he was mailed a ballot in 2020. How many more have had similar experiences? How many don't realize a ballot went out, in their name (misappropriation of an identity) without their knowledge - because they moved.
And, there is a screen shot of a single vote cast in California where it was allocated to 3 people by percentages.
Ballot drop boxes should only be placed in police and fire stations, with video. It should have a scanner where they put the ballot, which removes it from any future voting option, or puts it into disputed pile.
