What is the Republican justification for why Georgia Secretary of State tried to limit voting on the Saturday after Thanksgiving?

[Billy000]

The case you work hard to be stupid? You will get no argument from me.

Hey idiot why should I be okay with a Trump supporting judge for an impartial ruling? Are you this dense?

You’ve already been proven wrong, so you may wish to stop digging. Georgia law says you’re a liar too.

I was mistaken on state law, but I am not wrong on Fed law.

Republican voters like to pretend whenever the GOP tries to limit voting, it’s related to just ID laws. That is far from the case isn’t it? Republicans in power eliminate voting locations in urban areas that depend on early voting and ways of voting early. Even same day voting sites get closed down. They also make it illegal to hand out water to people waiting in line to vote. Do we even need to explain why they want to do that?

That’s Georgia republicans for you.

Now they tried to make it illegal to vote in the Georgia runoff on the Saturday after Thanksgiving but luckily a judge reversed it.

Republican voters can’t justify this. They might as well admit they secretly support these measures because they disproportionately affect urban AKA democrat voters. Their side wins. That’s all that matters.

Because in urban areas, voters rely on early voting. Democrats are much more common in urban areas than rural ones. Waiting until Election Day to vote in cities leaves long lines. Rural voters have the luxury to wait until Election Day because the wait time is a lot shorter. Republicans are more likely to be in rural areas.

Either way, doesn’t this bother you? If you think this affects Republican voters the same way as democrats even though it doesn’t, shouldn’t you be concerned about it? I mean it’s not just this that’s been a problem for voters. Review the other laws I posted in my OP.

I note you have no links to support a single claim of yours.

But why not just mail it in?

Because they don’t want to? Who cares why? For whatever reason they don’t want to. Why should it matter? We are talking about people participating in an a democratic election. If I had to guess why people wouldn’t prefer it is because it takes longer to he counted. In an election like a runoff, the time do it is more crunched. I don’t know for sure, but I sure as hell wouldn’t be surprised if voting early for that election was definitely not available right now. Probably some future date.

I could find the sources that make this claim, but the logic of it makes perfect sense. I mean what exactly would you need clarity on? Democrats are more common in urban areas? I’m willing to bet you already know that. From there, the rest of the logic is pretty obvious. Election day wait lines are obviously going to be long especially if the Georgia GOP has closed voting locations since 2020. Rural republicans understandably have no real urgency to vote early.

Georgia also made mail in voting for difficult because they moved back the request deadline for those types of ballots. They are also requiring stricter ID requirements for it.

The law states you have a week to early vote for run off elections......you dumb ass....so you can't vote on it...That is the actual law....so the democrats judge shopped for a democrat party judge to ignore the actual law....


Counties cannot hold early voting on a federal holiday or two days afterward. This eliminates both Friday and Saturday.

Um no they wouldn’t. But only an impartial judge and not a Trumptard judge can rule on the findings.

“Nkwonta argued at the hearing that the state holiday restriction applies only to primary and general elections, not to runoffs. Provisions in the law that directs the state's 159 counties to open early in-person voting "as soon as possible" for a runoff, and no later than Monday, Nov. 28, reinforce the idea that counties can choose to offer early voting that Saturday, he said”

“Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox on Friday issued an order saying Georgia law "does not specifically prohibit counties from conducting advanced voting on Saturday, November 26, 2022, for a runoff election." He also prohibited the state from interfering in efforts to hold early voting that day or preventing any votes cast that day from being counted.”

Moron.... Delaware..you know the zombie n Chief's home state have stricter voting laws than Georgia...you clueless clown...

Notice that this is an Atlantic article.....

Georgia citizens will still have far more opportunities to vote before Election Day than their counterparts in the president’s home state, where one in three residents is Black or Latino.

Although Democrats like to call out Republicans for trying to suppress voting, the states they control in the Northeast make casting a ballot more difficult than anywhere else.

Connecticut has no early voting at all, and New York’s onerous rules force voters to change their registration months in advance if they want to participate in a party primary. In Rhode Island, Democrats enacted a decade ago the kind of photo-ID law that the party has labeled “racist” when drafted by Republicans; the state also requires voters to get the signatures of not one but two witnesses when casting an absentee ballot (only Alabama and North Carolina are similarly strict). According to a new analysis released this week by the nonpartisan Center for Election Innovation and Research, Delaware, Connecticut, and New York rank in the bottom third of states in their access to early and mail-in balloting.

The Blue States That Make It Hardest to Vote

Democrats are criticizing Republicans for pushing restrictive voting laws. But states such as Joe Biden’s Delaware can make casting a ballot difficult.
