    You are shameless in your attempt to misrepresent this law.


    It does not prohibit providing water or food by non political operatives.

    No one should bother to respond to him any longer as he's just a stooge who helps spread baseless propaganda. He's an embarrassment.

    He spreads proven disinformation. That should be considered posting in bad faith and blatant trolling.

Legislation must be for the benefit of all. Not for the benefit of the powerful.

    Neither Republicans nor Democrats are morally pure; so I would expect each to promote those policies which would likely benefit their own party.

    This means that Republicans will be very likely to support Voter-ID laws, whereas Democrats will be equally likely to claim "voter suppression" here.

    But I do think that the Republicans have the much better argument here (even if not really the moral high ground; neither party, in my opinion, may reasonably claim that).

    Since all may obtain identification for free (even if they do not have a valid driver's license), there is really no reason--as far as I can see, anyway--to object to a law that requires identification.

    Still the left can't be given any break. Especially with the Democrats requiring 2 ID's to get vaccinated for the Wuhu.

    Never heard of anyone dying of starvation or dehydration while voting. Made up "problem" if I've ever heard of one (I'd NEVER drink water in a voting line in the first place, because I'd have to piss). Seems like a law that might make some fat $#@!s uncomfortable but harms no one.

    And now for something completely different, the truth:

    "No person shall solicit votes in any manner or by any means or method, nor shall any person distribute or display any campaign material, nor shall any person give, offer to give, or participate in the giving of any money or gifts, including, but not limited to, food and drink, to an elector,"

Don't think they aren't going to get a fight. They have already filed a lawsuit.

    Georgia's new sweeping elections law has a number of controversial provisions that will restrict access to voting. But one in particular has some people shaking their heads. Under the bill, signed into law Thursday night by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp, it's now illegal to hand out food or water to people standing in line to vote.
    "No person shall solicit votes in any manner or by any means or method, nor shall any person distribute or display any campaign material, nor shall any person give, offer to give, or participate in the giving of any money or gifts, including, but not limited to, food and drink, to an elector," the new law states.
    One influential Black pastor said he thinks the new law is unreasonable and that his church will use it to fire up voters. "We will make a movement out of that," said the Rev. Tim McDonald, senior pastor of First Iconium Baptist Church in Atlanta. "You know something is wrong when you can't give grandma a bottle of water and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

    There's nothing out of line with that new law. The OP attempted to misrepresent the details. That's what she was known for. Well that and her over the top hysterics.
