45 comments

    1. @Belis Breckenridge Trump still has 100 % of the dead Grandmother vote in Pennsylvania. The system works already.

    2. 💯 Republicans know their ideas aren’t popular they have lost the popular vote in all but one election over the last 32 years. Republicans response disenfranchise We the People.

    3. @Belis Breckenridge absolutely nothing.Every person does not have a photo id.You either work on a job that requires one or a drivers license, usually only if you own and drive a car.All ID clock in cards. Only have an employee number. All do not have a photo. There was no problem until.Trump.and Kemp came along.

  1. If Republicans had worthy candidates or a single policy worth voting for they wouldn’t have to rig elections.

    1. If Democrats had worthy candidates or a single policy worth voting for they wouldn’t have to rig elections.

  2. Becouse they know that from now on the will not win another election there in a honest WAY. Son they have too cheet. There not the mayorety anymore. That like more states. Got too get over it.

    1. Just so ya know…:Republicans have not been the majority for 30yrs!!
      They have only won ever by gerrymandering and voter suppression why are you acting like this just freaking happened?!? It’s OLD NEWS!!
      What’s new is how OBVIOUS IN YOUR FACE they are being bout it!! They used to try and hide it!!!
      Sooooo yea, just so you know cuz maybe someone told you it somehow just happened a month ago or something

  3. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

    1. @Nairb O. “Democratic Republic”……signatures are ID have been since before pictures, and are harder to forge on the fly.

    2. @john smith We’ve never had picture ID in the UK. So far, we haven’t stormed the Houses of Parliament either!

    1. Yes, and the fact that the voters completely turned Georgia blue was probably quite a shock to the system – the biggest since Obama in 2008.

  4. 2020 Highest voter turnout and safest most secure US Election in History. Republicans response disenfranchise We the People based on their own lies and engaging in minority rule.

    1. The People spoke and got rid of Trump and the “good ole boy” rules. Hence here we are slowly stripping the people’s right to vote and those especially of color! Sick!!!

  5. Republicans in congress are making their entire Republican party rot.
    The Republicans that voted for Biden voted blue all down the ballot.
    And the Republicans in congress know it:)

  6. We knew this was going to happen! If The Republicans can’t stop black people, from voting, they will never hold any office again. Instead of changing their politics, they change the voting laws.

    1. How are they stopping black people from voting? Are you saying black people are too incompetent to produce photo ID to mail in a vote? Are you saying if refreshments are not supplied while waiting in line to vote black people won’t vote?

    2. @Thyalwaysseek Wow, what a racist remark! Low income families can’t afford photo ID. And people should not be forced to wait, in line, for 5 hours, to cast their votes. This is Jim Crow laws, all over again!

    3. @Erica Hall YOU said black people are being stopped from voting, now you’re shifting the goal posts because you realize you are basically saying black people are too incompetent to get some photo ID or are too precious to stand in line without refreshments. BTW everybody stands in line for a long time not just black people.

    4. Seem to me if they stop people that don’t have ID or stop people from handing out water, White people cheat in elections too . So making sure they show ID is not a Race thing .

  7. This is the kind of reporting that has trolls waiting and willing to pounce. DO NOT REPLY TO THEM. Ignore them and continue to post facts. Use that energy responding to them by responding to people who have real concerns and questions. Let’s continue to educate instead of replying to people who are living in some alternate world. Keep sharp because they will try whatever tricks they can muster.

    1. Agreed. They are too far down the rabbit hole to be reached by those of us who have no training in cult de-programming.

    2. Couldn’t agree more.. I am tired of wasting my energy on people that won’t read facts, won’t look at the fact checking links and want to stay in their own reality.. Fine, i say let them stay in it while the rest of us move on and help each other..

  8. if the GOP went back to what it was before Reagan then it could win on the battlefield of ideas… However the Democrats is occupying that space now. They are more or less the GOP of the 50’s and 60’s.

  9. Republicans baseless complaints about voter fraud then enacting voter suppression legislation to “fix” the “problem” is like kicking you in the teeth and then shooting you for mumbling!

  10. Democrats in Georgia need to show these republicans they can NOT take away your rights! Do everything you can to help anyone who needs it to get what they need to vote, and to get where they need to vote! The rest of this country is depending on you Georgia!

    1. You can still drink water. You Can still get out of bed, get dress and go to the polls and vote, just pull yourself together , put some effort in to it, and go VOTE

  11. WHY ARE YOU NOT COVERING THE MORATORIUM EXPIRATION HAPPENING IN 4 DAYS WHICH WILL CAUSE THE EVICTION OF 20% OF AMERICAN FAMILIES?!

  12. Those five reasons don’t even include the two most important ones: racism and fascism.
    It’s high time the USA was removed from the UN Security Council.
    It’s become an embarrassment to humanity.

  13. Apparently people have realized that stealing from the poor to give to the rich is not a popular political platform.

  14. I wonder if Trump wants to get “hugged and kissed” by his supporters that he claims to love so much?!? 140 officers injured and 5 people died from those hugs and kisses on January 6th!!!

  15. Why can congress declare presidential election as holiday. That will free up a lot of people to vote without fear of job loss
