MLB moves game out of Atlanta due to new voting law
81 regular season games (and hopefully some playoff games) ok though. Mlb hypocrite much?
Just in case you didn't already know, we live in ClownWorld
Just a joke. MLB can play a game in communist Cuba, but requiring an ID to vote is just too much to ignore I guess.
MLB is just reacting to the Jim Crow headlines and Twitter trolls and not the actual contents of the law (some of which aren?t the best probably but a far cry from Jim Crow).
Same song, different verse
Mob rules in today?s society.
Most of it is minutia. The primary issues are the changes to the State Election Board. First, it removes the Secretary of State as the Chair and replaces him with an appointee of the Legislature. It can be argued this violates the State Constitution, as the Constitution gives the SOS the power of oversight of elections. Second, it gives that Elections Board the power to declare that a county elections board is derelict in their duties and can allow that counties votes to be thrown out. Which, if you follow Georgia politics, you know that this opens a window for partisan accusations to overturn local control and will be a tool for shenanigans (regardless of party). As I tell my non-Georgia friends - all you need to know about Georgia politics can be learned by reading about the Yazoo Land Frauds.

Why sports leagues wade into politics is beyond stupid.
And, ironically, it hurts the blue city of Atlanta.
I'm sure it's possible to tally the thousands of dollars in economic costs to blacks in Atlanta not having the game there anymore. I'm glad they are making the move though, more opportunities to highlight the fact that big business isn't your friend.
Here's one better - Section 16 of the law allows any individual the ability to challenge the validity of the vote of an unlimited number of people within their district with no proof of malfeasance - just an accusation after the fact. So you will see more of the "dead voter" malarkey come up as an attempt to nullify votes. FYI - every "dead voter" allegation that was made by the Kraken crew in Georgia was proven wrong
No they won't, because these "tactics", as you call them, have all been proven to be baseless grifts by opportunistic grifters who knew they were telling bald-faced lies. Literally every single example of fraud has been thoroughly explained, debunked, or flat out proven to bogus. Every. Single. One. (fyi...in most cases by Republican state office holders).
Check.
Your move.
Also...just fyi...something that you're choosing to ignore, is the fact that every time Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, Powell, and their team of grifters went before a judge, and actually had a chance to present their case.....they didn't. Instead, they withdrew every suit when faced with....what you may ask? Being under oath in a court of law. Spewing absolutely baseless bull shit to the public is legal, lying to a court is not.
Discover check.
Your move.
Effing stupid. So, MLB wants to move the game out of predominantly black city that will lose millions in revenue as a result. SMH. Oh yeah, MLB is now cronies with China. They've been spending millions there and now have the MLB China network. Makes perfect sense.
I'm not a Q anon guy. FYI. I'm not sure why you think we are playing chess. Why so sensitive. This is America and I can choose to believe that there is no way that Biden got 81 million legitimate votes. And I'm not even a huge Trump guy, just a guy that doesn't think we should bow to China or surrender our freedoms
Every western country in the world uses a voter ID. It is not even just advanced and rich countries. Brazil has a specific voter ID
ID to drive, fly, enter the country, check baggage, etc...
I give credit to the Democrats though, they love to cheat in elections. From Tontine Fraud, Tammany Hall to Landslide Johnson just a brilliant legacy of cheating and fraud.
Folks forget that Tontine fraud was the reason Hamilton called Burr “dangerous” which was the insult that prompted the duel. Yeah the musical is garbage and non historical. Hamilton wanted a more strict republic where only the top guys would vote.
Imagine a world where only people over 28 voted? How about over 28 and a minimum of 5 W2’s showing you are a self sufficient person.
But even voter ID can cause fraud, Venezuela was producing fake IDs to cheat the elections of neighboring nations, they got caught in Central America
Georgia has offered to give everyone free ID and yet they are still bitching, SMH......
I think anyone that doesn?t think we need to tighten rules around mail in votes and absentee ballots is an idiot.
Because if there was a loophole exploited this time then next time the other side will try to exploit it to and it just magnifies problems.
The problem is that we have one saying saying massive voter fraud and the other side screaming Jim Crow and neither side is probably right.
FIFY.**
Lol, but seriously...typical "lies" in the name of politics is quite normal, and not something I'm fond of either, btw...it makes the American political environment quite nauseating, to be honest (from both sides). It's when it rises to the point of attempting to overthrow an election (and sacking the Capitol) that makes those lies a bit more problematic.
I didn't mention Q...so not sure why you felt the need to bring it up....
Sure, you can believe whatever you want. Literally anything. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Hell, the Catholic Church believed the Earth was at the center of the Universe, despite Galileo being like "Na....just look through this telescope, and you'll see the light"...
One more thing...if you don't want to lose elections...a good strategy to consider in the future, is not have the leader of your party basically sabotage the whole thing by telling his constituents to not vote because the whole system is rigged. Just an idea.
