Remember When Joe Biden and Stacy Abrams called the new Georgia legislation regarding state elections Jim Crow 2.?
Remember when MLB pulled the MLB All-Star game in agreement?
Never mind that it costs thousands of Georgian businesspeople millions $ in potential revenues.!
Well now the dust has settled and what have we found?
No black voters had a poor experience voting in the 2022 midterm elections in Georgia, according to a poll conducted by the University of Georgia.
The poll, published Monday by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, found that among black voters, 73 percent said they had an excellent overall experience voting, 23 percent said they had a good experience, three percent said they had a fair experience , and zero percent said they had a poor experience.
Well the you go.
Yep. Thanks to the heroic efforts of Abrams and her people the Repo plans to suppress African American voters was not as effective as was feared. Though note the poll was of those who voted and as a result tells us nothing of those potential voters who were actively and actually dissuaded from voting.
In bambuworld ...voting is compulsory.
Don't vote? [you have to register and be included on the 'Electoral Rolls' to vote], the govts both state and federal fine you, and if you don't pay the fines they cancel your driving licence.
And, your name could have a big red cross added to it in the govt man's federal and state data bases.
Best not to annoy/take on the govt man, there'll only be one winner, and it won't be 'you'.

This is not Australia.
If everyone voted in USA GOP would not win a national election for a generation,
Trump killed the Republican Party, if we made all of our immigrants legal then none of them are going to vote for the Republicans. They all forgot about Reagan and about how Reagan loved Mexico and how Reagan made all of our immigrants legal so that they could call the police in the case of emergency, and so that they could join labor unions, and so they could come out of the shadows. Reagan had a very high approval rating with both Republicans and Democrats. But, now because of Trump the Mexicans all hate the Republican Party.
And as a White man I am facing racism because of Trump as I live in an immigrant neighborhood with all Latinos, I am facing discrimination for being a White man in a Mexican neighborhood. Trump is making people hate the White people. Trump and his fucking border wall bullshit, Trump is an asshole, and we need to make the peace and we need to rebuild our relationship with Latin America and with the Mexicans and with Mexican immigrants here in the USA.
The Mexicans will never vote for Trump. And the best thing that Biden can do for the Democratic Party would be to make the immigrants legal, if Biden makes the Latin immigrants legal and if he improves relations with Mexico, and if he takes down the border fence, then the Democrats will get the votes of the Latin Americans for the next 50 years.
Salute,
Tony V.
