Georgia republicans just made water an illegal substance

[Indeependent]

Asking you to show up at a poll and present an ID is hardly anything close to "making it as inconvenient as possible." Before the shutdown, I had to show up at my jobs and present my security badge every frikken day of the week.

Making people wait in line for hours on end is.

They can certainly have a little water. Just bring a bottle.

Was there some crisis in Georgia with people being given water in line to vote? How was this going to address voter fraud?

It is NOT going to address voter fraud. We ALL know what is going on here and it CANNOT stand.

Exactly. NOTHING about this deals with voter fraud in any way.

It's simply a method of limiting voter turnout. Limit polling places. and times...create long lines...make it as difficult to vote as possible.

It prevents all kinds of voter fraud. Only the terminally gullible are fooled by your obviously false claim.

So, the Georgia legislature passed an unwarranted law to prevent people from giving other people water and snacks while waiting in a long line to vote.

Priceless...

They are trying to stop electioneering. I dont see what the big deal is.

Dems hate it for exactly that reason.

Giving water to people doesn’t cause voter fraud.

It’s already illegal.

Yep, and that isnt stopping them so they are getting specific.

They are ALREADY in line to vote. Offering them some water and a snack while they wait is not offering something in exchange.

It's called "influencing" and if they say or display anything promoting a candidate or party, they're guilty of it. No one can police every interaction, so none will be allowed. This didn't happen in a vacuum, someone got caught. Stop playing dumb.

Actually they’re getting less specific.

Mentioning food and water is pretty specific lol

 

[Orangecat]

So have your god **** side go pass out water bottles and fruit snacks too? The **** do any of us care if people are "influencing" elections by passing out ****ing water?

STFU, moron. If no one cared, you wouldn't be whining like a pansy ***** about a law preventing it.
Kudos on being a self-censoring douchebag, btw. Your virtue is truly glorious to behold.

Water and snacks are not electioneering.

But everyone handing out food and water isn’t electioneering.

They could be, and you don’t need additional laws to make that illegal.

It’s illegal to give something to anyone to vote at all. Doesn’t matter if you do it within 150 feet of the polling place.

 

[TNHarley]

So you know for a fact they werent wearing political shirts? Putting political labels on the food and water?
Link please.

YOu should move to Georgia, run for Governor, and change the law.

How do you distinguish the ones who are from the ones who aren't?
