Record Voting Wrecks Dems’ Lies About GA Election Integrity Law

“This is Jim Crow in the 21st Century,” President Joe Biden said in 2021.

“These blatantly unconstitutional efforts … are nothing less than Jim Crow 2.0,” failed gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said.

“This is Jim Crow 2.0,” South Carolina Rep. James Clyburn said.

That’s how Democrats described Georgia’s Election Integrity Act of 2021, which expanded voting opportunities and added a requirement for voters to show ID in order to receive an absentee ballot. Their deliberately false and inflammatory rhetoric set off a flurry of criticism from major corporations, activists, and members of the propaganda press.

But the Peach State is once again seeing record-high voter turnout as the state begins its early voting period.

Chief Operating Officer for Georgia’s Secretary of State Office Gabe Sterling reported that more than 328,000 early votes and absentee votes had been cast on the first day of early voting (Tuesday), breaking past records.

In fact, some voters told CNN it was far more “easy” to vote this go around than in past cycles.

“Last time I voted, I voted in the city, and the lines were out the door,” Corine Canada, a black woman, told CNN. “They only had like, maybe like three people working. And so people honestly just started leaving because it was like that. Yeah, like, ‘This is too long. I can’t sit here and wait, I have to go back to work.’ But here, no, it was easy!”

But surely that can’t be true — we were reliably informed by Coca-Cola’s Chief Executive James Quincey in 2021 that the legislation “makes it harder for people to vote, not easier.”

Delta Air Lines Chief Executive Ed Bastian also claimed the “bill includes provisions that will make it harder for many underrepresented voters, particularly Black voters, to exercise their constitutional right to elect their representatives.”

Business executives selling their souls to the woke mob wasn’t enough for members of the propaganda press, however, with Axios releasing a report decrying corporations that “could have spoken up earlier when the law was being considered or before the governor signed [the law].”

But this type of rhetoric from the left was nothing more than feigned outrage designed to fearmonger and stoke division. It’s why 70-year-old Patsy Reid, a black woman, told The Washington Post she was shocked at just how easy it was to vote during the 2022 primaries after the left tried to convince her that Republicans would “deter us in any way possible” from voting.

“I had heard that they were going to try to deter us in any way possible because of the fact that we didn’t go Republican on the last election, when Trump didn’t win,” Reid said. “To go in there and vote as easily as I did and to be treated with the respect that I knew I deserved as an American citizen — I was really thrown back.”

Reid was “really thrown back” because she had “heard” from the left day in and day out that the legislation was going to suppress her right to vote. But the left and its media allies knew the legislation was never an attack on anyone’s voting rights (let alone black voters in particular), and Georgia’s day of record-high voting is a damning indictment of their insidious lies.
