Sure seems like the sort of thing that shouldve been figured out before voting day. But its not like Georgia has been subtle with their deliberate voter suppression.

I don't know if it's a lot of crying wolf or if this year is particularly notable for incidents. Suppression definitely seems to be the word of the day.

He believes the machines were back up and running at 9:15a, and is confirmed that is working again.

If it was just one location then this could have been just an accident. If there's several places, voter suppression becomes more likely.

And what's your evidence? Seems like we know almost next to nothing. Who makes the machines? Who ships the machines? Who sets up the machines? Who supervises the machines? There's tons of places where a mistake could have been made.


How can you forget to pack a power cord for every voting machine..

So, you also think that the people who were caught destroying Trump ballots should go to prison? (They kept a separate box for people who turned in ballots wearing Trump clothes and were publicly caught and fired for it)

Not sure, but it appears to have already been corrected. I'm sure some people had to abandon their plans to vote because of this, though, due to time constraints.

Kemp is full on mustache twirling villain right now. He needs to get voted the fuck out. I don't think I've ever seen any politician as corrupt as him, Trump / Hillary included.

Its not an accident when the Secretary of State is the guy running for governor. Its not a mistake when its the demographic most likely to vote for his opponent is disproportionately impacted by the policy and mistakes of the department he runs, that also runs the election.

banana republic

People seem to be misusing this term a lot lately. It has more to do with imports/exports and economic control than anything else.

Now that is an issue. They'd have known how many people would be assigned to each polling location and should have had enough equipment for voters.

The first comment (by a blue check MSNBC anchor) says that the problem was fixed by 9:15 am. Wherever those cords were, they werent far off. Im not ruling out the possibility that they were misplaced, given the timing of the fix.

We'll see in the following months after the GOP gets hit with multiple voter suppression lawsuits, again, and lose every single one of them, again. This isn't entirely new despite your desire to shove your head in the sand and pretend it doesn't happen.

But come on man, embrace your new friends and party. You wanted to join them, these are the decades long tactics that come with that "honor".

In 2016 there was a vid of an electronic voting machine where a small light would turn on for the candidate you pick. The guy pressed the one for Trump and instead the light for Hillarys name turned on.

The video & rightwing sites were claiming that Democrats hacked voting machines.

You get people who leave because they only have so much time in the day to vote. Then the rest of them congest the lines more as more people line up throughout the day
