Georgia is not messing around

Mandatory ID
ALL ballots have watermark AND QR code

To name a few. There’s actually about 15 different things like this that Gov Kenp signed into law today. Trump will now dominate Georgia

I hope other states will follow!

Laws mean nothing if you don’t enforce them. There were laws on the books last election that were purposely ignored and no one did shite about it. This means nothing when the first judge they run to after the election either rules no standing or simply tosses the law.

Seems odd steps to take just after we had the most secure election ever.

This. There were laws in 2020 that were just ignored and judges allowed it.

Why pass this now and not immediately after the 2020 election? Everyone with a brain knows the process was to fill in absentee ballots with the information of registered voters who didn’t vote. Everything else was simply a distraction.This was the reason why the swing states needed so much time post Election Day. No recount or casual audit would change the total or show fraud. The real question is why now?

Someone is finally listening to common sense.

Another potential bonus is if Trump wins we can stop hearing this kind of pissy shite too.

Shouldn't be a problem for the demoRats. They'll have truckloads of those things filled out and ready to go in plenty of time to stuff the ballot boxes with absentee ballots filled in as straight dem votes. It's their insurance policy in case the Dominion algorithm gets overrun with too many Trump votes.

No state should be counting votes 2 weeks after the election. We should know who the president is the night of the election.
The Dems keep counting until they are ahead, then the election is called!

I hope the Republican leadership is recruiting poll watchers that won't leave before the poll workers, people that won't fall for broken water line lies, people that are willing to break glass when cheaters put up obstacles to block the view of poll watchers.

I don't know what the details of judges ruling "no standing", but Republican leadership needs to have plans to get ahead of that.

And what are the consequences if they don’t? What if they have another water leak? Until there are teeth in these laws and someone there to enforce it, I’ll be skeptical.

exactly right. American Idol can count millions of votes during a commercial break, but we need two weeks to count election ballots. if that doesn't spell corruption ,I don't know what does!

So this means they will need to commit their fraud the week before the election and start harvesting early or fraudulently fill them out early. Unless I'm missing something, I don't see how this is huge win for fair elections. The same crap can happen again. Just do it earlier.

In 2020 the Democrats had 6 months to ballot harvest.

In 2021, the way I understand it, GA Legislature shrunk that down to less than 70 days. You have 70 days to request your absentee ballot. Fill it out and mail back in with ID. Your request gets processed. Your absentee ballot is mailed out. You fill it out and mail it back in and your vote is counted.

70 days is a tight window. About as tight as they could make it.

They also made it illegal to mail out ballot applications six months before the election like Raffensperger did in 2020.
