Early voting in Georgia primary sees 27K on first day, tripling the 2020 turnout

[butters]

if there's a strong dem turnout but reps manage to scrape past the winning post (here or in any other contested state), wait for the sudden 'news' stories, theories and restrictions that'll be introduced to shorten the time-span on early voting

The only suppression going on is fraud suppression.

But, there isn't any fraud, at least not enough to change the outcome of any election. The W Admin spent eight years looking for some, even going so far as to fire U.S. attorneys who were not taking the fraud-hunt seriously enough, and they still failed to find any. Trump assigned a commission to investigate, and it failed too. All Republican proposals regarding election law are solutions to a nonproblem -- unless you define the problem as the fact that people vote who the Pubs would rather didn't.

I'm looking forward to reading the book " 2000 MULES " by Dinesh D'Souza

I should hope even you would know better than to take D'Souza seriously, ever.

PolitiFact (which, unlike D'Souza, is a credible source):

The trailer for Dinesh D’Souza’s movie resembles a sci-fi flick, set to dramatic horror movie music with grainy video footage of what appears to be people dropping off ballots at ballot drop boxes.

The trailer suggests a nefarious conspiracy in which so-called "mules" – people it defines as collecting and returning completed mail ballots – submitted ballots en masse. The movie’s allegations are based on surveillance footage of ballot drop boxes and cell phone tracking data.

"This is organized crime," the trailer states, adding, "Bold accusations require bold evidence."

But experts on mail voting who viewed the trailer said it can’t support the allegations.

"If there is credible evidence, where is it?" said Kenneth Mayer, a professor of political science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. "This is not it."

The trailer has been widely shared on social media and promoted by former President Donald Trump. The full movie was slated to air in theaters during the first week in May.

It sounds like an interesting read. Criminals on many occasions shed light on criminal enterprises.

That's as much as to say that D'Souza has been personally involved in voter fraud. If so, not in any way that favored the Democrats.

Be a hoot and a half if all these (R) schemes to suppress votes ended up getting more (D)s elected.

Illegal campaign contributions is not really voter fraud per se. I find it ironic that Zuckerberg could contribute 400 million and the (D)s campaign strategy and (D)s are OK with that. Fucking hypocrites. You have to cut D'Souza some slack, he's just not as accomplished as the Clinton or Biden crime families.

The role of money in elections is a completely different subject. And not even you believe in the existence of the Clinton or Biden "crime families."

Try me!!! They're corrupt as the day is long!!

D'Souza is a grifter. If you find him interesting, then he appreciates your money

Both families are remarkably honest as politicians go. Even if they weren't, there are no grounds to equate them to the Gambinos or whatever.

Georgia Votes, which tracks turnout, said 180,620 ballots were cast last week, up 236% from 53,701 during the same period of 2018, when the last primary with major state offices was on the ballot.

Republicans made up 57% of last week’s early voters, compared to 42% for Democrats, according to the group.

Georgia midterms early voting setting records

So far, about 18% of voters in Georgia who cast their ballots early this year had in 2018 waited until Election Day to vote, while another 17% of early voters didn’t vote in the last midterm at all. More than 4 million Georgians will likely vote in this year’s midterm elections, surpassing the midterm record of 3.9 million in 2018, with at least half of those voters expected to vote early. The final count is likely to fall just shy of the record 5 million voters in 2020. Presidential-year elections typically draw far more voters than midterms.
