The narrative is being played out They want to ensure no other popilist outsider will ever attempt to run for President They want to ensure that voter fraud will always ensure democrats win or have a substantial influence.
None of them including Divider In Chief are ponting oit exactly how votes are being suppressed.

But why
You and your conspiracy theories. Whether republican or Democrats, these companies are still making tons of cash.

They are only pointing out the obvious and right thing to do.

seems LG will be leaving the mobile industry

Yes.
LG only appeals to a particular set of users, and this is not enough to make the company viable.

That was fun to listen to.
Flexing of muscles.

Anyway, the crux of the matter is that the voting laws by some backward politicians in Georgia was set up to disenfranchise voters. Simple as ABC.

On the bright side, Americans are very resilient people. These law would even propel or spur them to go out to vote. It's now very glaring that large voters turnout as seen in the last election is the nemesis of the GOP.

Global asset manager BlackRock issued a statement Wednesday on LinkedIn. "Equal access to voting is the very foundation of American democracy. While BlackRock appreciates the importance of maintaining election integrity and transparency, these should not be used to restrict equal access to the polls. BlackRock is concerned about efforts that could limit access to the ballot for anyone. Voting should be easy and accessible for ALL eligible voters. Voting is not just a right, but a vital component of civil activity. We should encourage all eligible voters to play this essential role in our democracy," CEO Larry Fink wrote.

Coca-Cola executive Alfredo Rivera said in a statement the company, which is headquartered in Georgia, is disappointed by the law. "As soon as Georgia's legislature convened this year, our company joined with other Georgia businesses to share our core principles: We opposed measures that would seek to diminish or restrict voter access and we advocated for broad access, voter convenience, election integrity and political neutrality. Anything that inhibits these principles can lead to voter suppression. We took these steps because they align to our Purpose and the conscience we follow," he said.

Georgia-based Delta airlines said in a memo to employees that the "final bill is unacceptable and does not match Delta's values." "After having time to now fully understand all that is in the bill, coupled with discussions with leaders and employees in the Black community, it's evident that the bill includes provisions that will make it harder for many underrepresented voters, particularly Black voters, to exercise their constitutional right to elect their representatives. That is wrong," CEO Ed Bastian said.

Pharmaceutical giant Merck said Wednesday that the company stands "strong on our core values including our commitment to social justice and the right of people to fully and freely participate in electoral processes." "There is no more fundamental right than the right to vote. Democracy rests on ensuring that every eligible voter has an equal and fair opportunity to cast a ballot, free from restrictions that have a discriminatory impact. We all have an obligation to stand up against racism and other forms of discrimination whenever we see them," the company added.

Porsche's North American operations, headquartered in Georgia, said that "equal access to the polls for every voter is core to a democracy." "As an Atlanta-based business, Porsche Cars North America (PCNA) supported the work of the Metro Atlanta Chamber with members of the Georgia General Assembly to maximize voter participation and ensure election integrity. We understand the legislative outcome remains subject to debate and hope a resolution can be found between all sides that encourages and enables every eligible vote," the company said.

Georgia-based UPS said this week the company supports the ability and facilitation of all eligible voters to exercise their right to vote. "Like other businesses in the community, we actively engaged with political leaders in both parties and other stakeholders to advocate for more equitable access to the polls and for integrity in the election process across the state. We echo the statement by the Metro Atlanta Chamber and stand ready to continue to help in ensuring every Georgia voter has the ability to vote," the company said.

Mercedes-Benz said that it "stands against efforts which discourage eligible voters to participate in this vital process."

In a blog post, Microsoft President Brad Smith noted the company expressed concern about the law prior to its passage and laid out its opposition in further detail, such as narrowing the window of time voters can request an absentee ballot. "We recognize that some recent criticisms of Georgia's legislation have proven inaccurate. But already, it's clear to us that the new law contains important provisions that needlessly and unfairly make it more difficult for people to vote," Smith wrote. "This new law falls short of the mark, and we should work together to press the Georgia legislature to change it," he added.

Brian Moynihan, chairman and CEO of Bank of America, told CNBC in a statement that ensuring equal voting access is aligned with the company's investments in reducing racial inequality and increasing economic opportunity. "The right to vote – and the vital work that must be done to protect access to that right – is a fundamental principle in the United States," he said. "Our history in fact is punctuated by the moments when we expanded that right to those to whom it had been denied too long. We must continue to right the wrongs of our past, and stand united in our advocacy for equal voting rights for all."

Cisco CEO Chuck Robbins shared his concern for the new law in a tweet. "Our vote is our voice, and everyone deserves the opportunity to be heard. Governments should be working to make it easier to vote, not harder. Ensuring equal #VotingRights isn't a political issue, it's an issue of right and wrong," he said.

Home Depot, which is headquartered in Georgia, said that it will work to ensure its workers across the country have the resources and information to vote. "We believe that all elections should be accessible, fair and secure and support broad voter participation."

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said in a statement that "voting is fundamental to the health and future of our democracy," calling out restrictive election laws. "JPMorgan Chase employees span the United States and as state capitals debate election laws, we believe voting must be accessible and equitable. We regularly encourage our employees to exercise their fundamental right to vote, and we stand against efforts that may prevent them from being able to do so. We are a stronger country when every citizen has a voice and a vote," the company said. CNN first reported on the statement.

Citigroup said it strongly opposes "efforts to undermine the ability of Americans to avail themselves of this fundamental right."

In a LinkedIn post, American Express CEO Steve Squeri complimented the new effort co-led by the company's former chairman and chief executive, Ken Chenault, to spur corporate America stand up for voting rights. "As a company and leadership team, we support this message and stand against any efforts to suppress voting which is a fundamental right that belongs to all Americans," Squeri wrote.

Facebook said that the company supports "making voting as accessible and broad-based as possible" and that it opposes "efforts to make it harder for people to vote."

ViacomCBS said it believes "in the importance of all Americans having an equal right to vote and oppose the recent Georgia voting rights law or any effort that impedes the ability to exercise this vital constitutional right. Increasing voter access and civic engagement is one of ViacomCBS' core social impact pillars and we will continue to educate the public on the importance of an open and fair voting system through our programming and extensive partnerships with grassroots organizations that promote and increase participation in elections."

You are just trying to twist the English language to fit your narrative.

Do I need an ID to vote in a Canadian election in the province of Saskatchewan?
The answer is NO.

Someone can vouch for me, but my answer to the first question is still NO.

Cornpop:


you are showing something right? That's your identification. The first one you ever got was your birth certificate.

You know someone who works at the polling station? That someone can identify you. I don't think Bill gates shows ID before he enters the Microsoft building. They all know him by face.

If you go to a poll and no worker know who you are. You will need to provide some form of identification. Period

No.

Me showing an envelope with a civic address on it is not an ID document. It may show my address but does not identify me as a person.

We would never agree on this.

Cornpop:


Good. This proves you must be identified.

I don't know why you bring this when it actually supports my position

No it doesn't. Read again.

I just need to know the election official as an acquaintance or friend, else I can just show my civic or mailing address. Note the "may, If and or".

Knowing the election official, or showing my civic or mailing addresses are not ID

Nunavut even made it easier.

Cornpop:


It clearly stated an ID is needed to vote. So answer my questions if ID is not needed

I see what you did. You deliberately skipped or failed to underline/circle the "NO ID?" part.

Also if we chose to ignore ID or No ID.

What we are talking about here in Georgia is the ease of voting.
Why should a region or jurisdiction in a developed feel it's okay y to disenfranchise voters with eligibility requirements for just one or two types of Photo ID

Cornpop:


No. You website also said you need an ID.

It also says No ID?

I am tired popcorn. Have a lovely day.

Cornpop:


No. I am not making shit up. Answer the question.

You don't have ID. Can you vouch for another person who does not have ID?

Can you answer?

My question to you is can I (as a person) vote in a Canadian election without ID?

Answer Yes or No.

Cornpop:


And buhari studied in the US, worked for 3 decades before going to Nigeria to rule.

Obixel visit me every summer. This time the pandemic was the reason he couldn't come. He also worked for 3 decades here in Austin

You just ended up insulting obixel with this poor attempt at sarcasm

Cornpop:


Can you answer the questions?

The site clearly stated you need ID to vote. But if you don't need ID why do they need someone with ID to vouch for you. Can you answer?

All these shalaye sef

That "someone" might not decide to vote. That someone may not have an ID. You are just making things up.

To be an eligible voter, you only need to be on the voters register which you can get yourself on if you are Canadian and you have already filed at least one tax.

Still which part No ID do you not understand?

Cornpop:


Yeah, we got to feel bad for AmazonTopaz trapped in Port Harcourt and PrideofLincoln1 mother. Too bad PrideofLincoln1 is too poor to send them here. At least send them to Mexico and have the Coyotes take them to a border wall. I am sure she is strong enough to go above the wall.

And how do you know his parents don't visit the US as often as they like?
Are you making this up?

Cornpop:


1: The site clearly stated you need an ID to vote.
2: if you don't have an ID you can't just walk in and vote.
3: someone who has an ID must vouch for you. So they are still Identifying you.

Questions:
1: can you just walk in to the Sask poll and vote without being identified?

2: can someone without an ID identity you?

3: if no one has ID and ID is not required, why does the page says "An eligible voter " will vouch for you.

Do you have to be a tool for the left? You are deliberately spreading lies.

All this explanation just for a two word sentence "No ID"

No ID means I (emphasis on I, I as a person) do not need an ID to vote.

English is really hard for some.

PrideofLincoln1:
If that midget obixcel pays for Young Shall Grow motors to his hometown, I doubt if that poverty cursed foool will have N10.000 left of his meager salary. Just let those cursed midgets be.

My son can blow that amount on Nintendo games on switch within a 1 hour, 30 minutes sef

PrideofLincoln1:
Do you realise that those two physical and mental midgets never step out of Nigeria in their lives but the cursed fools know about Canada and America than you and I and others that are citizens of these developed nations. You see why some people are stocked on permanent level of poverty.

I don't blame them really. Poverty is a bastard.
It can get into people's brain and make them type or speak nonsense.

The dingbats are out in full force displaying their craze again

What part of "No ID"is hard to understand?
That two word sentence is simple enough for even a toddler to understand.

Please users of lg g8, g8x v50 & v60 .. is it possible to switch between normal & wide angle camera while recording in manual mode?
I think they removed the option on Android 10, but I don't know, want to confirm
Coz I know that on g7 and v40 you can't switch to wide angle camera while recording even in auto mode, of which they brought back the feature in g8 & v50, but I don't know if you can switch in manual video mode while recording on the g8 & others on Android 9 & 10.
Thanks for your reply

G8 can also go into wide mode in manual video recording..it's a pinch to zoom in and out like the V60.

omotolsy:
G8x is kinda better.
Using both side by side revealed this.

The good of G8 is that its a beast of a handy phone.

I haven't laid my hands on the G8X apart from YouTube reviews.

ubev01:
S10 plus is the only perfect phone. So perfect that Samsung have released note 20 plus, s20 ulta, note 20 ultra, s21 ultra. Stop using words you don't understand. There's no such thing as a perfect phone, every phone has its strength and weaknesses.
A phone's strength this year may be it's weakness next year in comparison with the competition.

Exactly.

Nope. If there was, phone manufacturers won't be in business.
Just go for a phone that meets all your needs.

williams2600:
make una help me fine g8 na abeg

Goodluck in your search. That's one beast of a phone. I still admire my wife's g8 once in a while. I traded a g8 for the big dual multi-tasking screen on V60.
Using headphones for audio, the G8 has a better sound quality and sharper screen c/w the the 3D facial recognition..

omotolsy:
Good to know someone's wife uses LG like my wife does too lol

My wife has always been a fan of LG, then got carried away by the Samsung hype/marketing. She just returned to LG about 2 months ago.

^^^Modified. I thought you said your wife uses LG G8.

This is coming a bit late. I just tried this on my LG V60 with stock camera. It's running Android 11 and it's possible. I was able to switch between Wide and normal while video recording. On my phone, I no longer have the icon for wide angle, but I can zoom in or out using pinch from x0.5(wide angle) to x10.

My wife uses LG G8 running on Android 10. I will check her phone when she is home to see if the feature works.

PrideofLincoln1:
You are the cause of your own woes. What business of yours is about taxes in America when you do not pay a dime except the Visa fees you were conned out of. Yours truly has been paying taxes in the Fruited Plains since I was 16 year old working in Goldblatts Store after school. Americans ain't complaining but a foool is having a BP about taxes in a country he has no connection to.

I wonder if one pays some sort of tax to the US Gov on Visa fees

PrideofLincoln1:
Not only will he be illegal, he wouldn't stand a chance if I drive him three hours to Northern Indiana where the Nazis and Klans they worship will hang him on an Oak tree and burn him alive while drinking and having a barbecue orgy. Have seen those Nazis in real life and thank God that my friends and I are alive when they attacked us after missing a turn to a Nazi town then in Chicagoland called Cicero. These White ass lickers never step outside in their lives hence their ignorance about a country they only see in their dreams.

Hanged on an Oak tree? Walahi this thread na cruise

How much tax do you pay on N30K civil servant salary? Let those who pay tax worry about that, and stop crying more than the bereaved.

OMG. The internet never forgets. I initially thought Prideoflincoln was joking
