It is flat out insane that they can have outdoor events and also hold classes indoors but cannot figure out how to have *voting* on campus.
Football is fine because it's outdoors? Looks like your football stadium might be a great place for a polling site.
Like there is just no excuse for this, fundamentally, and that they put out a statement with this much contempt for people making an obvious comparison is absolutely nuts.
In absence of a polling station @universityofga better have county officials there every single day with absentee ballot applications and sort out the inevitable problems with students getting mail on campus.
And also I'll add that there are more than 37,000 students on UGA's campus. A crazy thought to solve issues of lines and social distancing? MORE THAN ONE POLLING PLACE.
Honestly how did "close the polling place" beat out "let's open additional polling places" in this brainstorm?
And like idk but SHUTTLES seem smaller than a whole ass polling place just saying.
