DUDES, YOU ONLY MADE THEM MADDER:
Georgia voters are breaking early voting records (Marquise Francis, October 20, 2022, Yahoo! News)
Nearly half a million Georgians have cast their ballots in the midterm elections through three days of early voting, according to Georgia's secretary of state, blowing past the previous record three-day totals in 2018 and keeping pace with a historic 2020 turnout in the presidential election."One of the bigger surprises ... was the huge turnout in early voting," Greg Bluestein, a veteran Atlanta Journal-Constitution journalist who wrote a book on Democrats turning his state blue in 2020, said earlier this week on his newspaper's politics podcast. "I expected the turnout to be high, but the levels we're reaching here in Georgia are reaching presidential levels".
Jim Crow's a lot harder than it used to be.
