The mass voter challenges we are seeing in Georgia are a national scandal.

It is blatant voter suppression, and we need to stand up against it. @symonemsnbc

I was told that things would straighten out when Kristen Clarke was confirmed.

They will do this if we let them, just like nothing was done to the Cyber Ninjas and the resulting fraudits across the states.

They hope to fight it on so many fronts that it will be impossible to stop. They'll break through in so many places it will overrun the entire system.

End of democracy.

in some jurisdictions/states is that if the election goes against them when the early ballots are counted the GQP authorities in charge will look at the in-person votes and if they are ahead then they are going to try to declare "problems" with the early votes and therefore they will try to say it is hopelessly "unfair" and they have to throw out all of the early ballots.

ready to scan on Election day. The Mail-In and early votes are ready to post when the polls close. The only mail in votes that are not posted are the overseas and military because they have an extra five days.

I know that my ballot has been received and is ready to go to the Ballot Board
