MLB moves All-Star Game out of Atlanta' stadium due to Georgia's voter restriction law

[ChumpDumper]

Did chump read the whole 98 page bill or is he like James who only has a high school degree and likes to talk about things over his head?




April 8, 2021 – Former Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., joined "The Story" Thursday to respond to basketball star LeBron James' support for Major League Baseball moving the All-Star Game out of Atlanta.

COLLINS: Look, I enjoy watching LeBron James play basketball. The problem when it comes to this issue [is] he’s just wrong because he has not read the bill. He read the talking points spewed out early on. To say how this is somehow going to affect minority voting, Martha, I challenge you or anyone else, show me in this bill where it will affect or will harm minority voting, or for that matter any voting. We’ve expanded the number of hours, we've secured our vote.

This is not about this vote. This is about perpetuating a narrative to say that things are happening in Republican states, and particularly in Georgia, that are just not happening, and Major League Baseball got caught in the middle of it. And I think over time, this is going to be a turning point, I think in this culture now, to where we can have honest discussions about election law, which is the only thing that's happened here, but have it in a position of saying, 'OK, what is best for the people who vote?' and not an agenda being pushed on a narrative of voter suppression

this narrative

Why change the voting laws at all, ducks?

After all, the 2020 vote was verified, rechecked and reverified.

Why the new law?

Explain.

Issues first time states stopped counting on election night
More illegals in USA so trying to strengthen law making sure only USA citizens vote in it
Not people from other counties ! I mean counties spending money on Facebook in USA that effect elections are bad but showing you are actually USA citizens and requiring proof is bad per chump

hb 6 and sb 7 in Texas

Hidalgo said what they are we are seeing is voter suppression in real-time from a party who has bought into conspiracy and lies that are directly attacking the success in Harris County voting turnout. She said it was the result of an election they didn’t like.

City of Atlanta Pulls Out of Georgia

ATLANTA —In the latest blow to Governor Brian Kemp, the city of Atlanta announced that it would be leaving the state of Georgia to protest its discriminatory new voting law.

In a press conference on Monday,

Atlanta revealed that it will be relocating its sports teams, hospitality industry, and entire 136.8 square miles of land to another state yet to be determined.

Kemp attempted to put a brave face on the situation, even though the departure of the state capital means that he no longer has an office in the state that he governs.

“If Atlanta thinks I can’t get the business of Georgia done without it, then Atlanta is gravely mistaken,” Kemp, speaking from his room at the Quality Inn in Jesup, said.

News of Atlanta’s decision touched off a bidding frenzy among states eager to host it,

but the city indicated that it was only interested in moving to a state that makes it easy for its citizens to vote.

“We’re taking offers from Oregon and Washington State very seriously,” Atlanta said.

“We let the call from Texas go straight to voice mail.”

Business cabal takes aim at Texas election integrity laws

At the centre of the debate is a legislation advanced in Texas on 1 April that would bring new voting restrictions in the state, including limits on polling place hours and reducing options for voters to cast ballots.

The new statement would be a second reaction from corporates after a letter signed last month by 72 Black business executives made a similar point against the bill passed in Georgia, which was also coordinated by Mr Chenault and Mr Frazier.
