Fair Fight Action is demanding that Governor* Kemp appoint a District Attorney by Saturday, May 2 to avoid suppressing the constitutional right of Georgians. 2/
It’s imperative the citizens of both Athens and Oconee county get to choose their next District Attorney and not have an unelected placeholder until 2022. Fair Fight stands ready with @dg4da and the citizens of Athens and Oconee County to put and end to voter suppression. 3/
We are urging you to call Governor* Kemp at 404-656-1776 and demand he appoint a District attorney before the May 2 deadline so that an election may take place this November. #gapol

After 37 Governors took statewide action, @GovKemp decided to order a 10-day-only shelter in place. While this is a good first step, we are looking forward to reading the executive order. In the meantime, here is what Brian Kemp did not address during his press conference:
1. @GovKemp did not fully expand Medicaid, which would save our rural hospitals, create jobs and immediately cover half a million Georgians who are currently uninsured.
2. @GovKemp told renters he was sure their landlords would be “willing to work with ya” if they cannot afford rent rather than sharing assistance resources for both tenants and landlords.

THREAD: Georgia's anti-voting rights bill of 2020 is here.
#SB463 #gapol
1. Because the Sec of State and State Election Board (SEB) failed to do its job in preparation for the 3/24 primary, they are now forcing #SB463 onto GA’s legislature and passing blame for their failures onto GA’s counties. Here’s one example out of many:

THREAD: GA taxpayers are footing a $150M, 20yr bill for a voting machine contract that only lasts 10--and machines that may not last 6. The contract is full of hidden costs & leaves counties w/ more questions than answers. Highlights from our analysis at GeorgiaVotingMachines.com
The SOS failed to purchase enough machines for counties to comply with GA code. It took them 5 months to realize this & order more. Unfortunately, this purchase could add $5M in county licensing/warranty fees to an already staggering $47Million price tag. bit.ly/2Lq6czW
To put that in perspective, Fulton County may pay up to 45% more every year, $4.3Million total, in licensing/warranty costs under this new contract. DeKalb County may spend nearly 30% of its entire Elections budget on these same costs.
