FULTON COUNTY, Ga. - Long lines are being reported across metro Atlanta as Georgians head to the polls to cast their votes.

The long lines are due to high voter turnout, but in Fulton County, they’re also because the county is using fewer voter machines.

Channel 2 Investigative Reporter Aaron Diamant has learned that 700 voting machines in Fulton County remain sequestered due to a pending paper ballot lawsuit.

Diamant said the county has about 2,000 machines in use and is down to 40 spare machines.

Sorry, sounds like more of Kemp's bullshit to keep the vote down in Democratic areas. Earlier today I'd read about a polling place that was moved at the last instant, now this.

1. Fulton County - that's Atlanta

Public enemy number one as far as the Kemp Klan are concerned.

2. There is such a suit.

The motion was denied on 9/17, apparently, but there's no word on what evidence the court required or impounding/sequestering machines.

3. No paper trail in Georgia either.

Georgia elections are some of the most fucked up in the country. At least that asshole Kemp won't be Sec. State now, and maybe there can be fair and equitable elections in Georgia from now on.
