what?? voter suppression????????!!!!!!!but they CAN vote!!!!!!!!!??????This is just sick and wrong. The long lines are only in areas where black people live.
As I was reading it I saw there was no wording that said the food and beverage can't be sold. Then got to the end of the article which mentions just that.
If I lived in Georgia I would give out water and food for a penny or a barter.
This is clear and blatant vote suppression. If it passes it should be challenged in court.
The law also restricts no excuse absentee voting to people over 65, no cell phones can be used, and no candidates can enter certain polling places.
