Takin' it to the Street
a rally in tweets

In Chamblee @ Peachtree Blvd & Pierce Dr Saturday. Back today at noon! Handful of angry Trumpers showed up and rallied at the outhouse(!) OTOH, a nice lady came by to give us VOTE panties. She's in Deccatur today! 30K pairs involved 1/3 We win: Trumpers fled after an hour or so. This is a 73% blue area, after all. (Pro tip: use big sign to block view of theirs) I think they were mad that I was taking a picture of their retreat, but it is what it is. 2/3

People complain Black History Month focuses on just a few historical figures & events, but here's an antidote. 20 years in the making, this monumental work is still in print. I publish excerpts occasionally (not just in Feb) but it's best to read the book brambleman.com/the-way-it-was… Antebellum Georgia History brambleman.com/georgias-most-…

Geoaria @GovKemp wants to rig 2020 elections by protecting @SenatorLoeffler (R-NYSE) with HB757, which would block primary losers (presumably Democrats) from her race by moving qualifying from late summer to March. @GaSecofState is his chore boy. Looks bad; they don't care 1/4 @GovKemp @SenatorLoeffler @GaSecofState A move is afoot that would shift the Senate seat qualifying period to March, with a May primary. Which makes more intuitive sense. But would force the politically struggling freshman senator to take off from a short runway. How could she even spend $20M in short time frame? 2/4

Thread Shaw just voted w/ other GOP PSC members to hike Georgians' electric rates $1.7 billion. This wasn't even a Vogtle case, so more to come! Shaw approved above-avg. profit for Georgia Power "to protect its credit rating" in era of Vogtle cost overruns. bizjournals.com/atlanta/news/2…

Thread: @GaSecofState has opened investigation of election security activist @MarilynRMarks1 and election security expert @rad_atl. One allegation: Marks illegally took and tweeted a photo from a secure voting area. Marks denies this, tweeting that she found the photo online. 1/ @GaSecofState @MarilynRMarks1 @rad_atl I found the photo easily. It accompanies a Habersham County article on the new voting machines dated Nov. 6. The photo credit indicates the photo of a "test drive" was taken by Dean Dyer of radio station wrwh.
