So how does the Biden administration reward a county that "helped" turn Georgia blue?  Cobb County is set to lose over 100 million in revenue due to MLB's relocation of the ASG, done at the behest of Hidey.  Using a voting block (in this case a county) for it's immediate purpose and then disposing of said block until the next election is straight out of the Dem playbook, yet those on the reservation won't ever hold him to account.  All too familiar......

I would imagine that if the Braves had stayed and built their new ballyard in Fulton rather than Cobb,  there would have much more pushback from the "locals" over taking the ASG out of Atlanta and losing out on that windfall of revenue.  Fulton County is probably delighted that Cobb is now getting its comeuppance.  Professional Sports would be wise to keep politics at arm's length.  We will see what happens to MLB revenue.

As a Cobb County resident nothing could make me happier.  The way the stadium came about was underhanded to say the least and cost the head of the Cobb County commission his seat.  As for MLB, not much to say as I have been away since the strike in 1990 so I can't really say I will be punishing them for not watching.

I remember the issue with you all (Cobb residents) being on the hook for alot more of the cost of the Braves move than you expected.  But a 100 million infusion is a 100 million infusion.  Does not come along that often.  Surely you know someone who potentially would have benefited from all that money coming into Cobb?

I find it also ironic that the MLB Commish has a membership at Augusta National.  Rubio has asked him to apply the same rules and relinquish his membership.  Watch how that goes.

First of all I don't believe for one second that one baseball game, even the All Star game, will generate $100M for the state of Georgia, let alone Cobb County.  The main reason I am glad is that Cobb has gone blue due to the influx of people from counties like Fulton and DeKalb as well as out of state.  They come to Cobb for the good schools, low crime, low taxes and good governance and then they vote for the very same idiots that drove them out of where they lived before.  Thet must think there is something magical that happens when you cross the Chattahoochee into Cobb that made it what it was.  Sorry, but it was conservative governance, not geography (I know you now this).  And they voted for Biden who single handedly could have stopped this but he screwed them over because of what his handlers told him to say.  So I am not backing down for a second, I am glad they pulled it.  Elections have consequences.

You do realize the whole unfortunate thing was the 100% direct result of the actions of the 134 Republicans in the GA General Assembly do you not? They tried to fix something that ain't broke and got caught.  If they had simply passed a revision tightening the ID requirements for absentee ballots (favored by both sides of the spectrum according to polls) and left it at that there would have been a few bitch and moans but not much else, but they are to stupid for that and badly over-reached even making it possible for the legislature to replace independant election boards with their own cronies.  GA voters in general and Cobb County voters in particular are smart enough to know the proverbial difference between chicken Chit and chicken salad even if you aren't.

Here's the irony of this and the blatant racism.  What they are basically saying is that people of color are too dumb to be able to vote.  And too dumb or lazy to have a govt ID.  And too dumb to fill out an absentee ballot request correctly.  That far exceeds to soft racism of low expectations and is just blatantly racist.  As for me, I think anyone is intellignet enough to do all these things regardless of the color of their skin.

FACT - if Biden had actually looked at the bill and not started the BS Jim Eagle crap it would still be there.

Funny - I do hope this is true and the follow through and pass it.

https://www.independentsentinel.com/ga-state-rep-introduces-jim-crow-on-steroids-voter-act-so-they-can-be-like-delaware/

We love this Act and believe Georgia should pass it immediately so they can be just like Joe Biden’s home state of Delaware. He said wants to deal with Joe Biden’s obnoxious rhetoric. Delaware, of course, is Biden’s home state.

He is introducing a second bill called  “The Senator Chuck Schumer ‘Racist Voter Suppression’ Voting Act.” That one is to replace Georgia’s new law with New York’s electoral laws instead. That means nine days of early voting instead of 19 and, again, a requirement that voters have an excuse in order to obtain an absentee ballot.

CAPITALIZING ON DEMOCRAT HYPOSCRISY

“Last week, our president decided to go on national news and basically disparage our state,” Cantrell began. “We have a new election integrity law here that we passed a couple of weeks ago, and our president, apparently without reading the bill, went on the news and called our new law, he called it ‘un-American,’ he called it ‘sick,’ he called it ‘pernicious,’ he then went on and called it ‘Jim Crow on steroids.’”

“So, in light of President Biden’s concerns about our law here in Georgia, I have decided that I am going to introduce new legislation,” Cantrell continued. “The name of this new bill is going to be ‘The President Joe Biden Jim Crow on steroids Voter Act.’ … This new bill will change our voting laws so that they mirror the president’s home state of Delaware.”

“This law will have five key features to make us like Delaware,” the state representative began. “Instead of having up to 19 days of early voting like we have here in Georgia, we’re going to have exactly zero early voting days, because that’s how they do it in Delaware.”

“Instead of having no-excuse absentee voting, like we have here in Georgia,” Cantrell continued, “we’re going to make you have an excuse to have an absentee ballot, and that excuse will be you’re either sick or you’re disabled, because that’s how they do it in Delaware.”

“Instead of having secure drop-boxes where you can place your absentee ballot in one of those drop-boxes for security’s sake, we’re going to provide you with exactly zero drop-boxes, because that’s how they do it in Delaware,” he said.

“And instead of being able to get food or drink from anyone outside of the 150-foot buffer zone while you’re voting, or being able to be provided water inside the 150-foot buffer area, we’re going to make it illegal for you to receive anything of value at any point while you’re standing in line to vote, because that’s how they do it in Delaware,” Cantrell added.

“Instead of being able to vote in relative quiet like we do here in Georgia, we’re going to make it so that when you walk up to vote they’re going to announce your name, out loud, so that anyone in the precinct can object to your right to vote. And worse yet, during a primary, they’re not just going to announce your name, they’re going to announce your party affiliation, as well. Why? Because that’s how they do it in Delaware,” he said.

Cantrell challenged the Democrats in Georgia’s house to support this bill if they agree with Biden’s [dishonest] rhetoric.

l did not claim that the GA General Assembly does not represent the people of GA (l certainly argue that they do not do it very well).  I do and did argue that had the General Assembly not enacted SB-202 MLB would not have moved the game.  Do you actually dispute that?  Now if you want to argue that it was a stupid decision then I will agree with you, but do not try to put the immediate blame for the decision on anyone or anything other than where it belongs.

This discussion started with you saying Cobb County’s loss of the Allstar game was Biden’s “rewarding” the county that “turned GA blue”.  I pointed out the decision to overhaul the GA voting law was the reason for the game being moved. That is the bottom line and the point I made.  It was not about an analysis of the law that l posted but about the reason for the move.  If you want to read the law it is online.  I disagree with much of it and deplore the lie being pushed by Kemp that it “expands voter access”.  It does not!  It reduces the time allowed to request absentee ballots by 60%.  It does for the first time codify secure drop boxes but allows them only inside early vote sites and in reality reduces the number of secure drop boxes in urban counties by up to 75% and reduces the time when they are open to use at least 50% and may, if a county chooses (deep red counties will) may limit access to only between 9:00am and 5:00 pm (when is a trash collector who works 8 to 6 suppoased to deposit his ballot?).  It does expand the number of days for early voting but permits counties (deep red counties will) to reduce the hours in each day they are open (in 2020 they were open 24 hours a day...sort of like their alternatives, USPS mail boxes.  It sets up a different standard for instate voters and absentee military and overseas citizens (ranked choice for overseas to avoid them having to vote in a runoff but no such benefit to instate folks).  It gives the most politically biased body in the state, the General Assembly, the power to remove county election boards.  It mandates more early voting days but prohibits county election boards from accepting funds from non-partisan third parties to help offset the added cost (can you say “unfunded mandate”?). It requires more ID for an absentee ballot...I have no problem with this but I’m not one of the 3% (that’s 230,000) of people currently registered to vote or eligible to register to vote who do not have such an ID.  These are just a few of the lowlights of SB-202.  In closing, just remember almost all the voting procedures that have been altered by this bill were originally put in place by the GOP legislature in 2006 over protests from minorities, and which worked just fine until the GOP started losing statewide elections in GA in late 2020 and early 2021.

Quite a skewed analysis.  Stacey Abrams herself acknowledged the bipartisan compromise achieved with this bill, noting the "Souls to the Polls" busing provision from churches to polling places being allowed.  More than 100 counties never offered voting on Sunday, but with this bill, requiring two Saturday and two optional Sunday voting days will give GA voters far more access to polling places on the weekend than previously legislated.  

Absentee voting could have dramatically overhauled, but in response to Abram's concerns, measured and much needed changes were made.  Regarding food and H20, both can be offered if they stay 150 feet away from the polling location or 25 feet from voters.  You have a problem with this?  Absentee Ballots can be requested using the same ID that one would use if voting in person.  The ballots can be opened and scanned but not counted until election day, and counting cannot stop and start and must be completed by 5pm the following day.  Problem with that?

Regarding drop boxes, they will be either guarded by individuals or video taped for security purposes and be located at each advance location. In 2020 they were unsecured.  It is now a felony for unauthorized individuals to open or deliver absentee ballots.  Problem there Archie?

You are correct in that there will be no more private funds going toward election costs.  Private donations will go through the state and be dispersed openly and equitably throughout the state.  Problem with that Archie?

The SOS can no longer privately negotiate election law changes.  Any changes must be publicized and the legislature has the ability to reverse or modify if needed.  The SOS is now out of the loop when election law is concerned.  Good government if you ask me. 

Have a problem with inept, corrupt local election boards being replaced?  Georgia’s new law allows the State Election Board to suspend and replace the elections supervisors in up to 4 counties. It provides a process to begin performance reviews and request investigations into complaints about elections supervisors and their removal for “demonstrated nonfeasance, malfeasance, or gross negligence in the administration of the elections".  Is this Jim Crowe 2.0 Archie?

If any organization had a problem with this bill, I would suggest that they act as adults and not bow down to the juvenile cancel culture that has caused a vast number of minority owned businesses to suffer as a result of 100 million $ being removed from their community.  I lay the blame squarely on you weak kneed Dems, who have made a deal with the devil and are now paying handsomely for it.

tendancies on full display!

You claim the GA election bill was a “bipartisan compromise” and that Stacy Abrams spoke positively of aspects of the bill.  Name one single Democratic representative or senator that voted in favor of this “bi-partisan compromise”, guide me to a single source where Stacy Abrams states she in any way supports this “compromise” or considers it in any way “bi-partisan”!  CRD, when you start the argument with a distortion (lie?) you are not on solid ground!

The bill allows but does not require Sunday voting so actually no change there.  The change is it allows early voting places to be open only from 9 to 5 as opposed to the 7 to 7 hours now in effect in most areas.  Where does the guy working 9 to 5 for a GOP boss who refuses to give him time off to vote go? Suppression, indirect but suppression just the same.

The overturned signature requirements for obtaining an absentee ballot were put in place by the GOP Gen Assembly in 2006 at the same time the photo ID for in person voting was established.  At the time the GOP leadership trumpeted “see, you can still vote even if you don’t have a photo ID.”  Well kiss that promise goodbye.  Sure I know what you are thinking...still no photo required if you have a driver license number, lease agreement, mortgage etc.  Well 3% of the citizens don’t have any of those things.  What do they do? I’m sure you will agree that the number of black and brown and elderly people without such is much higher than 3%.  Should they even be allowed to vote in the first place.  Are you one of those who advocate for “better” voters rather than more voters?  Supression anyway you slice it.

Even if you do have such an ID but are an 88 year old disabled woman living in a rural county of 4000 where the only public copy machines are in the courthouse, or school or sheriff’s office 20 miles away in the county seat what do you do.  No problem for you or me but what about those that do have such difficulties.  Suppression not to mention elitism on full display!

So handing out water is ok more than 150’ from the polling place and as long as you are more than 25’ from the voter.  How the hell do you hand a bottle of water from 25 ‘ away? 150’ from the polling place has been interpreted as from the property line of the lot upon which the polling place is housed...in the case of the precinct at my old high school that’s a quarter mile, at my church that means being at at least 500’ from the door to the precinct and standing in a busy street.  Maybe this one is just silly rather than supression.

l have no problem with absentee ballots being opened and processed before the polls close but not counted until after the closing.  Why would anybody...after all it simple codifies the emergency rules put in place due to the pandemic.  I do have a problem with the time during which an absentee ballot be ordered being cut from 180 to 75 days before the election and the requirement that all requests, even in person requests, are cut off 11 days before the election.  Why? A little more supression methinks!

Secure drop boxes sounds sooooo reasonable until you realize that secure means being inside an early voting place accessible only during open hours (there’s that 9 to 5 thingy again) and a max of 1 per 100,000 population which cuts the drop box locations in Fulton from 48 to 10.  The real question is why you don’t have a problem with it?  I am thankful the lawmakers didn’t make it illegal to use those old insecure US post office drop boxes that are all over the place and open 24/7.  Making it inconvenient is supression...period!

Private funds contributed to help offset the election costs will now go to the state to be “openly and equitably” dispersed throughout the state.  Yeah sure, and pigs may fly.  Are you actually gullible enough think the Red GA legislature is going to treat Fulton, Dekalb, Cobb and Gwinnett on the same terms as Floyd, Banks, Cherokee or Forsyth’s? If so let’s talk some more about my Gulf-front lot is Kansas.  For that matter does Talliaferro County with 800 voters really need the same kind of 3rd party help Fulton with 650,000 voters does? Really?

I do have a big problem with inept and corrupt election officials.  I have an equally big problem with inept and corrupt legislators defining what are the “inept and corrupt” qualities that bring on the need for change. I’m sure you can find many Republicans that would define an election board’s certification of a result not to their liking plenty of evidence to declare a board “inept and corrupt”!

I would suggest that ANY organization or business that has a problem with this bill and feels it does surpress voter participation to let their objection be known.  It’s called FREEDOM OF SPEECH on the one hand and FREE MARKET ECONOMICS on the other!  Be assured Delta and Coke and Dell know which way the popular winds blow and put more faith in being on the side of the people than the politicians!

Thus endith the lesson!

We know one thing about Antifatech - he does not care about election integrity or being able to validate the vote - that alone should tell someone all they need to know.  I guess his ideal utopia would be that anyone can vote in an election period and that the election should never end - why not keep polling places open 24-7-365.  With your vote(for his canidate of choice) you can also apply for your DL, SSN, green card, covid vacation passport on the spot.  Hell we might as well also have naturalizations daily at the polling places so that they can get naturalized quickly and vote same day.  No more waiting, no restrictions, no obstacles, and no excuses.  They can locate drop boxes in every cemetary(well assuming that they do not close and lock the gates at night) so that the dead can be harvested like the dementia patients in nursing homes and that they can empty or set fire to the boxes in more right leaning cemetaries.

You can take Bidens new bullet trains or commercial jets at 21,000 MPH from state to state and vote in ever state - people can start collecting the state "I voted" stickers like grandparents do salt and pepper shakers.

Something that I have been thinking about for the last few days based on antifatechs post, he keeps bringing up the 9-5 issue.

Based on your posts it would seem that it would be a good thing in your mind since it would be less likely to cause problems for democrats since they apparently are to stupid to get an ID and thus probably do not have employment which would be required for pretty much any job/paycheck and would have lots more time on their hands during normal business hours.

The idea that someone could not figure out a time to vote over 2 weeks regardless of hours just boggles my mind.  Lunch breaks, days off etc.  Any person who could not find time to vote or drop off a ballot at any of the drop boxes would have to be a demonrat to not be able to find any time to vote over a period of basically 2 week.

Where did I say that the ''9 to 5'' hours were dictated as the only legal hours allowed by the new law?  I pointed out that by law the code now lets counties allow the early polling sites to set their hours to 9 to 5 if thay so desire.  In recent years the tradition has been for early voting sites to be open 7 to 7, the same time set by law for election day hours.  You know as well as I do the deep red rural counties run 100% by Republicans will site the new law as they rush to depress the votes of their Democratic leaning citizens by reducing as much as possible the times available to cast a vote.  I guess those of us who think it should be the objective to make casting a legal vote as universal and convenient as possible should thank our GA rulers that they did not by law set 9 to 5 as the hours for both early and election day in person voting as the Iowa legislature just did! 

You need to read more carefully before going off half cocked and you need to carefully consider the definition of the term ''voter supression'' and exactly what constitutes such.  If you agree that voter supression is an acceptable philosophy that is fine and, by all respectful means, voice and promote your opinion, but please do not keep defending the bald faced lie that GA SB-202 ''increases'' voter access.  That dog won't hunt.

What's common place and simple for you and me can be a very high mountain to climb for some.  Voting must be secure but in a democratic society it should also be as convenient and simple as possible.  After to SB-202 voting will be basically unchanged for most but more difficult for hundreds of thousands and essentially impossible for some.  That IS NOT ''pansie party'' (so cute) but IS voter repression for those that fall in the latter 2 categories.

Now back to the bottom line...no SB-202, no MLB transfer to Denver...period.  It is not a Joe Biden slap at Cobb County, it is a GA legislature middle finger to Cobb County.  I guess Cobbites deserve it now that long GOP one party rule of the county has ended.

Glad to see you repeatedly admit that dims are to ignorant, dumb, lazy and wothless to be able to get an ID and find their way to a polling place on one of the 17+ early polling days or on election day itself.  Rush Limgaugh very eloquently described this as "the soft bigotry of low expectations".  So who is the REAL BIGOT?

That shoe fits you and several other of your fellow posters perfectly, so wear it!

Hate when I have to start my morning having your idiotic comments pop up before I log on.  Your bigoted rightwing extremism and dedication to the lies of Donald Trump, curdles the cream in my coffee.  The fact there are so many like you is a danger to the freedom of this nation.

BTW:  How far up on your ''bitch slap'' bucket list am I now?  Wonder if your wife knows you have such a list?  He!!, l wonder if is she's on it? You really are a sorry piece of ''work'' Lifer!

In fact I knoecked another off the list this weekend.  The wife and I are on a roll trying to take care of all we can before she retires in the next year or so.  Can you feel the sting yet?

Not quite Archie, GA sb202 without the Pansie's woke/cancel culture advocacy strongarmed by Hidey would result in the ASG still residing in Cobb County with its 100Million windfall for the community.   I choose to lay the blame where it firmly belongs.  There are those who are problem solvers and those who choose to create a problem where really none exist.  Your sob stories about voting difficulties are amusing to generations like our parents and grandparents,  who view this generation of libs as soft and far too easily led by their master's leash.

So now do we have to add "repression" to our list of pansie nouns and adverbs?

"If you looked up ‘bipartisan’ in the dictionary, I think it would say support from Republicans and Democrats," senior Biden adviser Anita Dunn told the Washington Post. "It doesn’t say the Republicans have to be in Congress."  So likewise, it does not mean that Democrats have to be in the Georgia General Assembly either for something to be bipartisan.  

Biden senior adviser Mike Donilon pointed to the president's new definition of "bipartisan" as "an agenda that unifies the country and appeals across the political spectrum. No mention of how a particular governmental body votes.  

Revise your definition in accordance with your own party, Archie, and spare me the lecture.

definition of the meaning of ''bi-partisan'' to defend you arguement that SB-202 was bi-partisan!  Knowing you are nothing if not level headed, fair-minded and have not a hypocritical cell in your body, I guess that means you also agree with me, Anita and President Biden that his Covid relief bill was bi-partisan.  I must caution however, that I know several Trump voters who have expressed support for Covid relief but not a single Biden supporter that has expressed support of SB-202.  Seems as if the former is a bit more bi-partisan than the latter by your and Ms Dunn's definition.

I'm happy to have you ''lecture'' me to explain your and Anita's definition of bi-partisan and I will add it to my vocabulary just as you have.  Thanks for the info Cuff-links.

You are wrong, which came first, SB-202 or your so-called ''strong armed'' tactics?  Without the first act we couldn't of had the 2nd act.

We can ALWAYS count on the smug we know what's best for everybody GA legislature to step in it every time the gather in the pasture surrounding the gold dome.

Utah Republican Rep. Burgess Owens, who grew up in the Deep South, was asked about the reference to Jim Crow laws on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.” He said he’s “sick and tired of the hard left putting my race down.”

“I’ve been hearing about this voter ID for 20 years. If they cared about Black people being able to get on a plane, to have a job, to have a savings account, to move into the middle class where it takes an ID, they would have done something by now. They love to use misery as a political strategy,” he said.

That is the Democratic party in 2021.

I keep wondering how much it will take to get the few good dems left in the party to switch to reps side and give control of government back to the adults.  I assume even those few we all know must exist must be compromised and have the deep state threatening them with exposre if they do.  It's really sickening to this country being torn apart.  I truley belive civil war is iminent if something drastic doesn't happen.

And if you are impressed with the remaining 55 in 2019's CBC, it speaks volumes about how your party uses the AA vote to further a big government agenda then does nothing for them between elections.
