The people we spoke to in #Atlanta told us that the lines have tripled, not because of higher voting but because it was a practical impossibility under the new law to mail in your ballot. #SB202 gregpalast.com/raphael-warnoc…

#RaphaelWarnock’s in real trouble. Don’t be fooled by the long lines of Black voters. Here’s the real story... gregpalast.com/raphael-warnoc… #Georgia #RunoffGA #gapol

Despite a judge adding one Saturday to #EarlyVoting for the #GeorgiaRunoff, that’s still only 7 days, and in some counties only 5 days.
Not mentioned in the press: how #SB202 shutters all #dropboxes except on Early Voting days, during Early Voting hours.
