MLB All-Star Game yanked from Georgia over voting law

[initforme]

So the game leaves georgia....boo hoo. No loss to one single georgian. It's a NON issue except to lessers.

 

[j-mac]

Oh? how so? Do you not believe that the integrity of the vote is important?

I love it. I'm with you. I reckon the integrity of the US vote is so important that illiterates should not be able to vote. Of course, that will have to be tested.

Oh come on now, don’t be foolish.

For one the dumb shit about you can be arrested for giving someone standing in line something to eat or drink. That is asinine.

The bill gives the state legislature the power to appoint the chair of the State Election Board, a role that was previously filled by the Georgia secretary of state. .

The Georgia Secretary of State, Bill Raffensperger, is a Rino snake. Looks like the state legislature is
on the ball.

The state legislature is a den of snakes who are trying to steal elections. They are terrorists.

 

[busybee01]

Your half of the country are Nazis. I don't give a damn about you people. You are the tyrants who want to cheat because you can't win honestly.

Ironic comment from such a dumb hoe.

You are the dumb one and a asshole to boot. Nearly half of this cfountry are fascists who are attenpting to take over the country. They call themselves Republicans.

 

[busybee01]

Duh, that was the primary.... they had problem with mailing ballots out etc...

The secretary of state did not have any in the November election.

Try again.

You claimed Georgia had NO FRAUD AT ALL!
You lied and now you want to move the goal posts! No dice.
And what happens in the primary has an effect in November.

Stop your lies. You're pathetic. And cast you mind back to the security tape in Fulton County.
The infamous "plumbing problem" video where everyone was sent home due to some bogus
invented plumbing problem but a few workers kept running ballots for Biden through the
Dominion machines for hours when no one else was around.

Stop your sad bs!

You are the one flinging the bullshit.

The fact is that the number of voters and the number of votes counted would have been of by a large margin. They were not. That is proof that there was no fraud. Two US Attorneys in Georgia saw no evidence of fraud.

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Not even the non existent plumbing "problem" when all witnesses were sent home from State Farm Arena
but five election workers stayed behind and continued to enter ballots retrieved from a tray hidden under a table?

Nothing suspicious about that, right? It was all recorded by security cameras or we wouldn't have
known a thing about that criminal fraud.

 

[busybee01]

Are you upset that they are actually against Jim Crow 2.0. It was folks like you that were pissed when they integrated baseball, so it is just par for the course.

I don't know. You would need to ask New Yorkers who have had the EXACT same law on the books for years.
Other states too.
But I get it - you can't virtue signal when the home state is one of your own.

Can you actually show us the parts of Georgia
Election law that is claimed by you to be EXACTLY THE SAME as New York Election law?

Have you actually compared the two states election law?

Or are you just repeating something your right wing media is pushing?

Or are you saying just one single part of NY election law and Georgia election law???

Regardless of the merits or demerits of the Georgia bill, the facts are that the matter was highly contested. Is it really a smart idea for a business like MLB to take a partisan political stand and tell millions of fans to "fuck off"?

Yes, it is okay, for the sake of the country, and everyone's uninhibited right to vote and choose, their leaders..... Not the leader's right to choose their voters...that does not exist as a right.

MLB is being pretty hypocritical here, however.


They are still refusing to remove the Atlanta team from Georgia and move them to Far Left North Caroliina or Virginia.

If they were serious about voting rights, that would be the least they could do.

They don't want to hurt Georgia, they just want Georgia to stop trying to hurt the minority voters, or a second Jim Crow era... They'd be back in a nano second....

Republicans take a lot of donations from these corporations dissing them now for their nationwide movement to reduce voters that lean democratic or are of color....not just in Georgia....

This is a systematic plan to reduce voting access nationwide, by Republicans.

This is a systematic plan to voting integrity, with complete access, nationwide,by every ELIGIBLE voter.
not the stuffing of illegal votes,, fraudulant voting machines, owned by a friend of a friend of a demonRAT, DOMINION , to be exact, hooked to the internet.
the people of georgia want TRUTH, not demonRAT truth.

We had voting integrity in the last election. There were no illegal votes cast. There werew no fraudulent voting machines as the hand count verified the machine count. The people of Georgia want TRUTH and REPUBLICANS ARE LYING.

Then how come New York has this law on their books?

NY is in the process of changing the laws. A constitutional amendment to allow no exzcuse absentee balloting will likely be voted on in 2022. Worth noting Republicans oppose this. NY does allow water and food to be distributed as long as the value of the item is under $1 and the person doing the distributing does not or is not wearing anything that identifies their organization.

NEW YORK (AP) — Atlanta lost Major League Baseball’s summer All-Star Game on Friday over the league’s objections to sweeping changes to Georgia voting laws that critics — including the CEOs of Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines and Coca-Cola — have condemned as being too restrictive.

The decision to pull the July 13 game from Atlanta’s Truist Park amounts to the first economic backlash against Georgia for the voting law that Republican Gov. Brian Kemp quickly signed into law March 25.

Kemp has insisted the law’s critics have mischaracterized what it does...

Clearly Baseball wants to go the way of other sports, alienating their fan base, instead of taking care of business...MLB joins the ranks of other businesses in Atlanta such as Delta, and Coca Cola in embrassing the "Woke" culture today, and insulting half the country....Is this a good move? What say you? Should business have a say in legislation that doesn't have anything to do with their business? And what of liberal progressives who were just 5 minutes ago railing against corporations now defending their actions....?

Your half of the country are Nazis. I don't give a damn about you people. You are the tyrants who want to cheat because you can't win honestly.

The number of votes cast and the numnber of votes counted are roughly the same. That means nothing happened. The voye counts prove that. You are the one who has no proof of anything.

So no comment on the State Farm Arena plumbing "disaster" caught on security video?

You may not be smart....I mean you aren't smart, but you know when to clam up.

There was no criminal fraud at State Farm arena...

The water leak was ....the state farm arena workers were worried about a small leak, which happened at 6:30 am in the morning, the poll worker counters had not arrived to count yet. They were not sent home due to this leak. The state farm arena management were worried that this leak would water damage some of their own equipment, so they had a repair man come into fix the leak. The polling place area was never in danger.

The blonde bitch that presented the tape at one of the Giuliani fake news hearings that went viral was a purposeful made up lie pushed to support their agenda.... And she KNEW it was a lie when she presented her conspiracy theory.

The ballots did not just show up out of the blue in suitcases under the table clothed table... The ba!lots were in ballot cases that were just filled by the poll worker team responsible for removing the absentee ballots from the envelopes, and flattening them out so to be ready to feed in to the ballot counting scanners, by another team of poll workers responsible for the actual counting machines.

the poll workers that were sent home were the team of workers responsible for only removing from envelopes and preparing the ballots...they left and were dismissed when they completed their task. Their last step was to fill the ballot cases with the unfolded and flattened ballots...AND PUT THOSE CASES under the table in the video, UNTIL the poll workers that were the machine feeding ballot team needed them.

They are the 5 or so people you saw were left behind who took the ballot cases out from under the table and began feeding them in to the counting scanners.

ALL OF THAT WAS NORMAL PROCEDURE....including the envelope opening team being sent home.

 

[Who_Me?]

Why is it certain people don't bat an eye at the Georgia voting laws and other people look at it as suppression?

 

[blackhawk]

Gotta love irony.

We had voting fraud in more than 1 state, in the last election. There were thousands of illegal votes cast. There were fraudulent dominion voting machines, hooked to the internet. The people of Georgia want TRUTH and the demonRATS to stop cheating.

Cobb County, Georgia is next to Atlanta/Fulton county. It is 30% African American. That is where the Atlanta braves Stadium is. In the 2020 Presidential election Biden won the county by a slim margin of about 16 thousand votes. The same amount he won the State of Georgia with. So 100 million dollars or even more will be lost. Progs do not care. They may even give the county the same amount of money from the federal level as Progs promote the Village. The Village does not believe in science. But it uses science for its agendas. The Village lives for today. The Village has never advanced sciences and math and the rest on their own. How they live a few thousand years go is how they live today and they do not save the acorns for any future problems like drought. You see the villages in our nation where the infrastructure declines. So someone has to get the blame. Stacey Abrams is death. But it does not start that way but the direction is ominous. It ends up that way.

 

[Fang]

STACEY ABRAMS, FOUNDER, FAIR FIGHT: To our friends across the country, please do not boycott us. I understand the passion of those calling for boycotts of Georgia following the passage of SB 202, but here's the thing. Black, Latino, AAPI, and Native American voters whose votes are most suppressed under SB 202 are also the most likely to be hurt by potential boycotts of Georgia.

Whoops, looks like Joe Xiden is hurting the very people he pretends to care about. Abrams got half of that right. Minorities will be hurt more by the boycotts. However, with the passage of the Bill those same minorities will have a much easier time voting in the next election as the law would extend the voting period and require every county to have a drop box (It was optional prior to the law). Most importantly, the state of Georgia will even provide people with a FREE ID if they don't have a drivers license.

It's stunning that Democrats in the end always hurt minorities with their activism, political stance and LIES. But the MSM ignores and half the country follows blindly.

Laura Ingraham: Biden, Abrams on Ga boycotts – here's what happens when reality bites social justice warriors

Whoops! Well, it turns out that bowing down to the social justice warriors really is a dangerous and self-defeating strategy.

These fucking crybabies have mortgaged the entire league on this blm shit. I'd like to see them get to the point where they're making $7/hour and when the 1st basemen makes an outstanding catch down the line, I throw $1.46 in change at him and he stops the game to pick it up. Of course, poor fielding would bring a shower of C cell batteries and potentially a stretcher or two.

I had a plumbing company on my back in little league.... they can go with DeShaniqua's Weaves and Dues.... the misspelling is gratuitous....

THEN I will return as a fan.

 

[Polishprince]

The Georgia Legislature should pass a law repealing the Election Reform with the stipulation that MLB stage the game and guarantee the state the $100 Million dollars of economic activity promised. Puts the onus back on the league.
