In those red States where there is underprovision of ballot facilities, it is just another vote suppression tactic. It is well known that in the deep South, polling stations are underprovided and the queues are longer, sometimes lasting hours. GOP racist voter suppression tactics will no longer work in modern information age. Let people drink water while waiting in line.

No one stops anyone from drinking water as long as you bring your water from home yourself, you can bring 10 bottles and drink to your fill

In Georgia you can do early in-person voting, Georgia allow drop boxes,

My brother lives outside of Atlanta in a city called Marietta and he said that you drive an hour away from ATL, you will see polling booths that are 15 to 20 miles apart from each other in the rural part of the State that do not have public transportation. How do you expect elderly people and disabled people to queue up for hours in mostly minority communities and giving them water to drink is an offense to so Called Godly Republicans. Some things are just beyond annoying. The repercussion will be very damaging to Georgia and especially the Governor that will likely lose in his reelection fight next year.

So you are saying water is now stomach infrastructure? So water and food is now enough to buy votes from an American?

I can just see a confederate Jim Crow in my mind saying "deprive those there thirsty niggers of water and they will go home ". Only a racist voter-suppressing mind can even think up such laws.

Do other races not get thirsty too? So how do they get their own water at the polling place?

At a polling place, no vote canvassing should be allowed under any guise, Campaign should stop before the election. You are just there to vote and get out

What is so hard in bringing your own water when going to vote. So what is racist in saying everyone (not white, nor brown nor white) should bring his own water

Some things truly doesn't deserve a reply. You seeing the true mind of so called Republican. Water is equivalent of vote buying. Telling 80 or 90 year old elderly people waiting for hours in a rural area to be chugging along gallons of water because they want to exercise their fundamental rights of voting. Wow, this is beyond despicable.

Tell your racist Republican states to reduce voting queues in black neighborhoods to the same as other races neighbourhoods, then no one will be worried about using water to ginger people to stay in line.

Good man.

Biden calls for and supports MLB moving the Allstar from Atlanta because of voting law

Wrong move

https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/01/politics/biden-mlb-all-star-game-georgia/index.html

When did "President Joe Biden said he would "strongly support", become "Biden calls for", raumdeuter?

It is a very good move actually something like that happened in NC and the lawmakers yielded too.Drain them of their money that is smart politics when Delta criticized the GQP they voted against giving them tax breaks yesterday I love what corporations and employers of labour are doing in Texas fighting against the voter suppression bills.Biden made the right move and the lawmakers will only realise they played themselves.You don't make it hard for people to vote and not expect reactions those people are ready to slide into autocracy to maintain minority rule they don't care about winning elections anymore they just wanna keep spreading the big lie

You got to remember that the current gops we have on here are trump gops who think their actions are consequentless and they can shoot people in the street or let half a million Americans die and still win a second term. And if they don't get away with it or win a secind term, its the libtards fault for holding them accountable for their actions, and they will be inaugurating themselves in January, February, March, I think they missed out April because they'd be obvious fools, and now May, regardless.

WHy should a president be clamouring and supporting a campaign against a City or state?

Why not wait till the next election and vote them out of office

So when another Trump becomes president and doesnt like the policies of California or Illinois state, he can use his influence as commander in chief to deny the state.

Is that what you want in US democracy?

I wonder why you call it democracy if you expect people not to exercise their democratic rights.

When has anyone called for people not to express their democratic rights?

Are people in Delaware who have worse voting laws than Georgia not expressing their democratic rights?

You democratic right is to go vote for anyone you want without any form of coercion

Why will a President strongly support denying a city its right to host a tournament because of the local politics of the state.

Gov Kemp is performing his duties as the elected governor of the state, why should Biden now think he can punish the people of Atlanta for a decision made by elected officials in Georgia

When you set these type of precedents just be ready when the next party wins presidency and scales it up and punish a state for the decisions of its elected officials

Biden can not punish the people of Atlanta, is what you fail to understand. If the people of Atlanta do not like what Biden or the elected officials say or do, they just need not vote for him or them and the representatives of his or their party come next election just as people who disapproved of trump did not vote for trump and voted for Biden instead.

Its called People Power, yo. As in, democracy, to be more accurate. You know, power by the people for the people kind of politics, as in one person one vote to hold officials accountable. Or don't you trump gqps know about such things?

The presidency is a very powerful office

Do you think its right for the president to strongly support a city to lose hosting rights to a competition because he disagree with the politics of its elected officials?

You democratic right is to go vote for anyone you want without any form of coercion

Only you would call Biden's talking, coercion, while at the same time failing to see what Kemp is doing as suppression. Do you always do this, because I do not think I am familiar with this sort of selective reasoning of yours and think I need to watch out for when you do it.

Delawereans are obviously happy about their electoral procedure or they'd be voting for people who campaign to change it to what they want just like the elected officials of Georgia are, though it seems they never campaigned for what they are now doing and many Georgians ain't having any of it. We'll see how many when next there's an election of course.

Perhaps if you knew more about the history of voter suppression in Georgia you'd understand current opposition better. There is campaign to remove a former Georgian senator's name from the SOB, you might want to look into if you got the time. Don't you miss the fact that he was a Democrat now.

Dude, please! Drumpf did worse than that and I can't recall you wailing like this then, so why wail now?

Yes I think it is right for Biden to speak up against the politics he disapproves of. It's not as if he is the one who gets to decide if they pull out or not, or is he? Is Biden now Dictator Biden to you trump gqps?

Is Trump the standard to which American presidency is held to? There is a reason he is no longer president because many Americans disapproved of his ways from both party

So is Biden trying to be Trump

PrideofLincoln1:
Don't put me in a GQP column. I am a proud Democrat who voted for a Republican Governor of my State, Illinois once and his name was George Ryan who ended up in jail for corruption while serving his second term.

I believe in live and let's live. You can support the Democratic party and still agree to disagree with those in the GOP, that should be a normal thing.
I support the Democratic party too for some of their ideologies, but that does not make me to see the GOP supporters as enemies.

I respect your decision though, I've noted it in my archive.
Remain Blessed.

Care to show me Biden's approval ratings so we can see how much disapproval he's getting? Can anyone kindly please?

I'm remembering a different you. One that used to be well balanced and whom I said I respected. Or am I mistaking you for someone else?

If Biden is found to have done bad he too will be punished at the next elections, but this your own umbrage is rather unbecoming because Biden has in no way stooped to drumps level and likely never will considering the decorum with which he has comported himself so far and all through his illustrious career.

You can be a Democrat and still disagree with policies of the party just like you can be Republican and not support some policies and actions of your party

There are many Americans Republicans and Democrats who openly disagreed that Trump did not meet the level of decency needed for a president

If the standard for American presidency is now Trump that was rejected at the polls then ..

I have praised many of Bidens policies here and till now said he has not taken a step wrong

My expectations is not for Biden to tow the path of "At least Trump did worse"

Show me anywhere before today I have criticized Biden for anything. I supported Biden when most of the so called Democrats on this page were throwing him under the bus at the primaries

If you only respect my opinion when I agree with you then its very unfortunate because I will disagree and agree with you in equal measure

Just like I remember you different as someone who had a balanced opinion on issues and won't just tow the party line

I think its wrong for Biden to strongly suggest that Atlanta be stripped of its hosting right because of the policies of elected officials.

So because of Bidens approval ratings means he can do no wrong? Or what exactly is the point you are making about his rating

I respected your opinion when you disagreed with me, you can go back and verify I did. Its this new edging of your's I can't stand.

First you added to CNN's headline because it obviously was not bad enough for you, and now you are asking one to take umbrage at what never happened. Or how is Biden anywhere like that cretin orange lying turd drumpf?

Politics is about getting your way, and Biden and his party oppose this Kemp Georgia bill because it is obviously detrimental to their achievements in Georgia and favours Kemp's party, but if you expect Biden to play duck while Kemp rigs the elections in his favour, then you are very welcome to such naivety. I for one, refuse to be so naive and just hope the other party continues to be naive because their naivety works in my liberal favour.

In a statement Friday, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said that after discussing the matter with teams, the players’ union and current and former players, he “decided that the best way to demonstrate our values as a sport” is to relocate the event, one of the most prestigious on the sport’s calendar. A new host city has not yet been finalized.

You are the one trying to judge Biden on the scale of Trump. There was a reason Trump was roundly condemned as the worst person to ever occupy the oval office. If you want to celebrate that Biden was at least better than the worst person ever probably you don't have high expectations of him

This Kemp and Rafflesberger were the same person who followed the law and ratified Georgias election despite pressure from a sitting president in their own party to do otherwise even when they and their family were targeted for not helping Trump to rig

Kemp and Georgia senate were elected into office to make laws for their state. Biden is using the power of the presidency to support punishment for doing what they are elected to do

If the electorate of Georgia do not like Kemp and his party policies then they can vote them out not for the president to punish them for making laws like they were elected to do

Pay attention to the part in bold. Biden strongly supported a decision to move it away from Atlanta

(CNN)President Joe Biden said he would "strongly support" moving this year's Major League Baseball All-Star Game out of Georgia following the passage of a sweeping elections bill that brings a wave of new voting restrictions to the state.

I am not judging Biden at all yet, please note, but if I was, that cretin drumpf would be the last person on my mind. I mean, I did go through Obama, Clinton, both Bush's, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon and Lyndon Johnson to name just a few and only missed Kenedy by a gunshot, and I have read books about a few others across centuries, so why the heck would I be judging US presidents by the worst of them all?

All presidents meddle in state politics. They must, because what happens in states affects their election and presidency as we found with the current president and in the exact state we are talking about, which will be the first battleground for the senate under Biden's presidency, in case you are not aware how high the stakes for this is!

During Obamas regime, North Carolina passed some laws against transgender people, some companies decided to boycott but Obama did not join in clamouring for the boycott, Supporting boycotts is a Trump-like tactic. That can only be justified if Trump is the standard

I don't think I want Biden whom I supported to see Trump as a standard for himself rather the Obamas Bush etc that you mentioned because a major part of why he was voted was to change the direction the presidency was going under Trump and embrace decency

Thinking decency is a naive moral prison is what got us into the Trump mess, where a president will be interfering with everything
