I refuse to go to telegram. I don’t want that Russian porn on my computer.
If there is no water put out at the water station I can not give you water. How is that hard to understand? It’s a petty difference on a very petty law that specifies something above and beyond in an effort to stop something that was already considered illegal.
She should tell the Chief Counsel for the lead GOP Representative.
LOL at inconvenient. There is no reason to be waiting in a line if one actually uses that lump two to three feet above the *** to think about strategy on voting. There is a reason I don't go to the first or last day of early voting. By looking at daily totals, I get to figure out which location is least likely to have a line. Instead of a line, I get my choice of which machine to use because nobody else is there...That law is dumb. Can anyone explain the difference in setting out a case of bottled water vs. the election office worker walking down the line and handing out bottles on a hot day?
Again, the goal is to make voting as inconvenient as possible to reduce the amount of overall voters.
Drinking water is not voting. Your argument couldn't be less persuasive.That law is dumb. Can anyone explain the difference in setting out a case of bottled water vs. the election office worker walking down the line and handing out bottles on a hot day?

It boggles my mind how people like you continue to insist that having rules somehow inhibits or restricts eligible voters from *checks notes* actually voting.
Distances at which no contact that can be construed as politicking or electioneering exist in every jurisdiction.
Oh, and last I checked...November is not exactly noted for being 'hot' in Georgia, so spare us the editorial bovine excrement.

The old "water hurdle". It has stopped many a voter dead in their tracks. I believe it has decided 15 Presidential elections, over 100 gubernatorial contests, and thousands of municipal and school board candidates. Dehydration is a serious matter....just ask Tom Herman.LOL! You need to have a "strategy" to ensure you don't end up in a long voting line without water. Ask yourself why you should have to have a "strategy" just to vote, exercising a constitutional right. I think you just made the case for me that these rules are implemented to put additional hurdles in place for the average voter.
For pity sake what the heck does water distribution have to do with constraining ones ability to vote?
Oh brother. You honestly believe someone would not be allowed back in line if they went to a table for water? I think the water thing is a diversion.
Are you going to post a day where it was actually HOT?
Keep in mind if you buy water for the guy next to you or they do for you they've made that a felony.
I specifically look at trends and avoid lines. That being said, if it was actually going to be hot and I thought I might be in line for a half-hour, then I might bring a beverage. Only time I had any manner of line was the primary for 2016 nationals where a last minute trip out of town meant I missed most of the early voting. So I waited behind about 100 people at the West Lake Hills Randalls around lunch time on the last day of early voting...mb
Does you watching traffic trends to avoiding lines to vote have anything to do with having water?
I wonder what people who wait in line at theme parks do for water?

It's not about the water. It's about criminalizing helping people. Lines have a history of being longer for non-whites. Them's statistics.And if no water is available at all? Keep in mind, if you didn't bring enough water with you and there isn't an "self-serve" option what's your next step? Find a local store then get back in line? Keep in mind if you buy water for the guy next to you or they do for you they've made that a felony. Staring at those long lines there is a good chance the voter simply walks away which is the intention of the law.
I'd agree that we shouldn't be talking about this but Georgia codified it into law.
Republicans hate helping people. It was just dumb luck that they support Capitalism, which has brought more people out of poverty than any other socio-economic system in history. I'm sure it was just bad luck that Democrat programs like the New Deal and the rampant welfare emerging in the 1960s held back the very people they were trying to help.It's not about the water. It's about criminalizing helping people. Lines have a history of being longer for non-whites. Them's statistics.
