Republicans Try To Steal Georgia Election By Not Providing Power Cords For Voting Machines

By Jason Easley at Politicus USA

"SNIP.....

Hours after the polls opened in some minority neighborhoods in Georgia people couldn’t vote because Republicans didn’t provide power cords for the voting machines.

......

The State of Georgia now admits that power cords were not provided for the voting machines here.



.....SNIP"

1. How can this be?

How can this be?

[elleng]

2. I don't like to hate,

until now cheney was the only one for whom I had that feeling, but these pieces of crap . . .

[Kaleva]

3. Why wasn't this determined last night when the machines were set up? Where were the poll workers?

[brush]

6. Kemp is the SOS and responsible for elections. This was purposely done...

There don't seem to any reports of missing power cords in trump-favoring communities.

Endless repug dirty tricks. They sit up nights coming up with ways to cheat because they can't win legitimately.

[Kaleva]

11. If poll workers aren't responsible for making sure everythings is set up, why bother having them?

14. Polls in Georgia are set up by the SOS office run by republican Brian Kemp.

Poll supervisors are republicans working for him. The ultimate blame is not with local poll workers but those who purposely didn't send power cords.

Hope the local workers were able to get cords and overcome another repug dirty trick.

Here's more evidence of Kemp/repug dirty election day tricks:

15. Polls in Michigan are set up by the local clerk's office

"Each year there are at least two-elections.



Some of the election support activities the Clerk's Office performs on a routine basis includes:

Set up and take down of voting machines at the polls
Maintaining a list of election chairpersons and inspectors and insuring they are competently trained
Processing absentee voter applications and ballots
Reporting voting results to the County Clerk of each polling place, including the absentee vote which is counted by a separate counting board"

18. That sounds like how it's done but if you've been following Georgia's race...

for governor you know that Kemp has been openly trying to suppress AA votes.

These dirty tricks are not surprising.

17. In a lawful state the pool workers should be arrested

and charged. Threaten them with 20 year prison terms until they track down the criminal who directed them to 86 the cords. We know who it will lead back to.

[DFW]

9. Busy hiding the power cords, of course. n/t

[Kaleva]

10. Poll workers are locals. Why would they do that to their neighbors?

[TDale313]

4. People need to fucking go to jail. n/t

[Hav]

5. Another instance where paper and pencil would be the better solution

against obvious acts of malice.

[Blue Owl]

7. Charge these fucks with obstruction

Fire their asses and let them think about their dirty deeds in the klink...

[lame54]

8. Check Kemp's trunk

[Mr. Ected]

12. Where I live in Georgia, in the fire engine reddest of rural areas

The voting machines were pristine and operated perfectly well.

You see, they wanted these to work. The ones in minority neighborhoods in City of Atlanta? Not so much as a power cord.

13. I swear, GOP incompetance and total lack of shame is a new low. They didn't used to be willing

to do something so blatant.

The election should go to the side that was a minority in each of these situations, by default.

16. When Kemp loses tonight, I want him locked up for election fraud.

If Kemp wins tonight, I DEFINITELY want him locked up for election fraud.

And then I want a law in Georgia that moves control of the election system to someone who isn't elected, so this never happens again.
