As a reliable straight-ticket Democratic voter, I nonetheless strongly endorse our judicial incumbents in the Georgia races today. None of the ones on the ballot are hyper-partisan and they are very good at their actual job, which is deciding cases.
@237LAC@Jake_W It is very concerning. If we can’t put the past behind and work toward the future, we are going to find ourselves on the sidelines wondering what happened come November.
@AmyKremer Let’s be clear. Voting had already started when the ruling came down. He had no authority to cancel an election already in progress to redraw the maps. Lots of “experts” out there ignoring the facts because they have a narrative they want to spin.
@RepDanGoldman You might want to check your facts, unless you would prefer to not allow the facts to influence your post. Early voting for the August primary had not begun. Tennessee didn’t stop early voting to pass the new maps. For many of us, facts still matter.
@RepJeffries So as long as the majority votes for something, the Constitution no longer applies. Sounds like a dangerous way of thinking…the kind that leads to the majority discriminating against the minority.
@GavinNewsom And your VA redistricting which would eliminate 4 out the 5 R seats and everyone was so proud of was just ruled unconstitutional by the VA Supreme Court. Tha was quite a victory for you all.
@Pro__Trading Where in the Constitution do you find that he is supposed to stop an election where voting has already began to redraw district lines? Your answer should be interesting.
@kate_p45 The left loves to see Republicans casting doubt about elections with nonsense like this. Nothing improves their chances to win elections more than Republican leaning voters becoming discouraged by nonsense like this and simply staying home.
@kate_p45 Worst take ever. Republicans in the House and Senate drew those lines, not Kemp. And the left was not happy with Georgia for redistricting. Now people are calling for Kemp to halt election already in progress to change the rules of ongoing election. That’s not legally possible.
@JoeyMannarino The voting for this election has already started. He cannot stop an ongoing election to change the rules for said election. I don’t understand why people cannot see this.
