  • Some Georgia civil rights groups say the state's new election laws are similar to "Jim Crow" laws, and they are more about voter suppression.
    Governor Brian Kemp signed Senate Bill 202, which makes sweeping changes to early and mail-in voting, absentee ballots, food and water in voting lines, and the state election board's ability to take over any underperforming election office. The bill also removes the Secretary of State from the election board.
    Melanie Campbell the President and CEO of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation spoke with Roland Martin about the ongoing vicious assault on voting rights.

The law is clear on why they want to stop this and yet you have people like Martin telling you 1/3 the story to inflame your brains. If you know you will be in line, why don't you bring your own food and water or are you looking for some freebies? . No wonder every race of immigrant paces up the black community within a decade of arriving.

    In case you're wondering, I have a friend in ATL. When he lived in a white area, the polling places were literally empty, said he could go during lunch, walk right in, vote and walk right back out. When he moved to a black area, he had to take the day off, because it took him 6 hours to cast his vote. He has his own business, meaning, he could take the day off. How many people have this privilege? black or white?
    Same with mail drop off boxes. They reduced the number of the drop off boxes. How do they expect the elderly to vote when they have to drive further out to drop off their ballot?
    This is vote suppression, plain and simple.

    Here is a summary of the key points:
    - The video discusses new election laws passed in Georgia that make several changes to voting rules, such as requiring ID for absentee ballots, limiting drop boxes, restricting giving food/water to voters in line.
    - Civil rights groups argue the laws amount to voter suppression and a return to Jim Crow-era tactics. The governor claims the laws make elections more secure and fair.
    - Previous increases in black voter turnout, especially in 2020, have prompted Republicans to try to pass more restrictive voting laws to make it harder for groups like black voters. Their strategy is to shrink the electorate.
    - Melanie Campbell from the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation says this follows a pattern of red states changing voting laws after black voter turnout increases, rather than trying to organize and win fairly.
    - Lawsuits have already been filed challenging the new Georgia law. Experts expect many more challenges given provisions that may violate federal voting rights.
    - Restrictive voting bills have been introduced in many other states, prompted by lobbying groups. The Republican strategy is seen as trying to surgically remove voters to improve their chances of winning.

When I moved to Georgia, I had to apply three times before they approved of my application and sent me my voters registration. And unlike normal States, you had to have your birth certificate, marriage and divorce decrees, for each marriage and divorce, if more than once. Thank goodness you didn't have any problems, but don't try to put the difficulty on the perspective voters.
