Here's one take on why the new law will hit Black voters: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/25/us/p ... oters.html

Frankly I think the Republican Party continues to slit its own throat with respect to the long term. They're doing stuff like this to try to reduce Black voting and it may help them in 2023. But non Whites can see what is going on. And non Whites continue to increase as a proportion of the population both nationally and in Georgia.
Keep on posting fake news JSO.
NYT Lie #1
making it a crime to provide food or water to people waiting in line to vote.
FACT: Like the countless other states that have very specific laws against electioneering near polling places, Georgia has codified rules preventing political groups from handing out food or water to voters in line as an incentive to vote, but specifically allows poll workers to make water available to anyone who wants it. The law will also directly cut down wait times, meaning refreshment for people waiting in line will be less necessary.

I'd looked into it. It's true. You and other conservatives need to stop relying on questionable sources such as redstate.com.

You know there is a lot more to it than that. Yes, the intro talks about what Democrats and voting rights groups say." But there is nothing in the content of the article to suggest that it is based on what Democrats and voting rights groups say.

There is a statement about making it illegal to provide water associated with a statement that long lines are common in Black neighborhoods.

Give it up man. This law is CLEARLY designed to try to cut down on Black voting. It is what it is.
Wronge

Electioneering within 150 or so feet from polling places is illegal in nearly every state

The whole water thing closes a loophole that was being exploited. AND the GA law requires polling places to provide water within those areas

AND - you are parsing out what the NYT actually wrote much in the same way a Trumper parses Trump’s tweets

You are the same as them

The Georgia law makes it illegal to hand out water within 25 feet of anybody standing in line; not just within 150 feet of a polling place.

See the whole Politifact discussion linked above.

It's not true- poll workers can continue to give out water- 100% legal, no prohibition. It clarifies that people politicking can't. You TDSers need to stop relying on questionable sources such the MSM...

CID tries to look at things objectively while you're a partisan hack who looks for information that supports his existing point of view.

I rarely disagree with CID for a reason - I don't want his bootprint on my azz.

And, BTW, we don't even know if the things he is asserting (which do not really make his case) are accurate. For instance, we don't know that most States prohibit handing out water within 150 feet of polling places because he just asserted it without providing any support for the assertion. Could be true. And if it is true it doesn't change the fact that, for instance, the Georgia law also prohibits handing it out within 25 feet of anybody in line. But we don't know it's true.

Another thing about a "most states" argument: Most states have Republican legislatures (see https://ballotpedia.org/Partisan_compos ... gislatures). The fact that most states have a particular election law restriction does not, on its own, infer that the restriction is not in place to repress minority turnout.

This is why you fail, StWronge

You cannot read critically of accurately

I never once said that most states have laws prohibiting handing out water within 150 feet of polling places

Besides, black people are smarter than white people when it comes to coming prepared. STOP infantilizing black people. It is bigoted and wronge.

Same. Those blasted committees really do a wonder on a bill before it finally gets voted on and codified. Though it is interesting to see some of the changes that happen though the process but unfortunately my time for that these days has been extremely limited.

Social media is a pox. Why anybody would comment on current events through it boggles my mind. To many events or timelines change as more information comes out that make most initial commenters look like fools.

It would also be good to explain why what Georgia is doing is so egregious but how it might be ok to have similar requirements & restrictions for proof of vaccination.

Nice article except it didn't provide one single example on how this new law will make voting more difficult for minority voters. :?

Lemme help you out here....you can't.

What the law actually states is that the Georgia State Election Board...the BIPARTISAN Georgia State Election Board can step in when a county fails its voters by allowing long lines, not fulfilling absentee ballot requests, not counting votes accurately, lose ballots, etc. The county can only be "taken over" after investigations have been conducted, and a hearing has been held. The county can even appeal the decision to superior court if it chooses (i.e. due process).

Do yourself a favor and just shut the fuck up. You have no clue what you're talking about.

I'm assuming what the race hustlers are getting at here, is they are afraid of people wanting to come in and clean up counties that run their voting operations poorly.
