1. Kemp seems really committed to this blatantly misleading talking point.

So it's worth understanding the facts.

Follow along if interested.

2. Prior to Georgia's new law, there were four potential weekend early voting days and only one was mandatory and three were optional.

The new law makes two mandatory and two optional.

BUT major urban and suburban counties like Fulton County already used all four.

3. So if you like in Fulton or similar counties, where you'll find most of Georgia's Democrats and people of color, this second mandatory day does not expand access AT ALL.

It only expands access in rural Republican counties.

I'm sure that's a coincidence.

4. Meanwhile, the new Georgia law RESTRICTS early voting for people in Fulton in elsewhere in a couple of ways.

First, Fulton will no longer be able to use mobile voting sites which were key to reducing lines in early voting.

Those are now illegal.

5. Second, it compresses the total time between a general election and a runoff to four weeks.

Since it takes time to prints ballots etc, it's unlikely that any county will be able to offer a full slate of weekend early voting and none is required.

6. So the new law would have greatly reduced early voting, particularly in big counties like Fulton which take advantage of it, in the elections that send Ossoff and Warnock to the Senate.

Those are the facts.

Sorry @GovKemp
