Perplexed 🙄 I’m being sarcastic. On the same day Georgia’s GOP approved an election bill to repeal no-excuse absentee voting 😤 the Chairman of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission & Trump appointee praised GA for enhanced security & innovation during the 2020 election. 🤔
#TrumpAppointee Chairman Donald Palmer (U.S. Election Assistance Commission) recognized Secretary of State #BradRaffensperger for his enhanced security measures & innovation during the 2020 election. 🤔 FYI 👉 40 🇺🇸 states have introduced more than 250 voter suppression bills 😡
Under SB 241, voters would need to be 65 years old or older, absent from their precinct, observing a religious holiday, be required to provide constant care for someone with a physical disability... there’s more...
...or required to work "for the protection of the health, life, or safety of the public during the entire time the polls are open," or be an overseas or military voter to qualify for an absentee ballot. #CantMakeThisUp
The bill ALSO creates ID requirements to request an absentee ballot, requiring anyone who does not have a state identification or state driver's license to submit a copy of an approved form of ID when requesting an absentee ballot as well as when submitting their absentee ballot.
Without a valid photo ID, many older Americans are unfairly restricted to vote👉 the @AARP has data that proves this. If a parent didn't file a birth certificate but the child received a Social Security card, that may prevent a driver's license or registration to vote.
I get it, Republicans are licking their wounds from losing the 🇺🇸 Senate to @ossoff @ReverendWarnock so they want to change the rules to prevent @staceyabrams & @GeorgiaDemocrat from finishing what we started... #NewsFlash we are going to finish the job 🎯 2022. #NoSafeSeats
