I for one thought that Georgia would be the Democrats biggiest win.

But I have to wonder how much the voter purge will change this outcome? Kemp is a weasel and had complete control of this election. It is the old adage, the GOP will do whatever it takes to win. There is time remaining.

6. The voter purge didn't matter because you had to go 7 years without voting to even

run the chance of being purged. How many people do you know that haven't voted in 7 years, and wouldn't check to see if they needed to re-register several months ago?

I've been purged multiple times because I moved and didn't notify my old county. That's fine, because the first thing I did was register in the new county. That's exactly what happened to most of the people on the purge list.

Fact is, there are a lot of white wingers in this country and we better recognize that.

to negate kemp's fuckery.


1/Voter rolls left password unprotected

2/You can hack their system, by accident

3/No software on the system to detect hacks

4/exact match ID to the voter rolls. (see #1)

5/hundreds of thousands outright purged from voter rolls

6/ same with voter registrations

7/ their system has not been updated since 2011

8. Something smells in Georgia. There had to be over 50% to avoid a runoff.

Kemp jumps out with these high numbers is the biggest lie in Georgia politics. All polls showed a close race. The increase in voters were African American and you are going to tell me Fulton and Dekalb counties voted for Kemp. It is the biggest injustice in politics. Corrupt manipulators! I will never believe these results. I knew they would cheat but they have no shame. Hell has just opened in Georgia!
