Your post does not even make good nonsense. If you do not know that DMV closings in some majority Black counties require citizens to go long distances to a DMV, the reason you do not know is that you are not informed. My saying this in no way implies the kind of racism you allege. It implies anti-Black racism by Republican governments which closed DMVs to create barriers to voting for Black citizens.

Anybody who doesn't think that the true motivation behind this kind of GOP bill is to reduce Dem turnout and voting is flat out delusional.

Regardless of whatever alternative justification they might offer, everyone know that the reason they are doing it, the true motivation, is to gain an advantage.

To be sure, Dems do it too. When their bills expand the time to vote or offer alternatives to the traditional go to the polling place scenario, it is to increase their voting turnout.

But I wince at these so called innocent explanations from people we KNOW are lying about why these measures are being passed. Its so obvious.

As hog pointed out a free ID can be obtained at any county's registrars office. Here's a map of the counties in GA. Hard to see how one could be even 20 miles away from their county's registrar's office

There's still a bunch of DMVs left in GA too.

Without a BS mail it in voting system that your side railroaded through, most of the current uproar about voting law changes would probably never have happened in the first place. It was a perfect storm caused by reaction to an action that was s spin from never let a "crisis" go to waste. What this bill should have done and didn't was completely shut down all mail in voting with the exception of time honored absentee voting for people like the military stationed in other locations.

So even though the rules actually expand voter access that doesn't matter because you believe the unspoken motives of the people who increased that access was to reduce access.

This is what happens when the facts go against you - invent nefarious motives and attack the invention.

So you have not even kept up with this issue but criticize me because I have. Before you posted, how much time did you take to find a source for my post? My wild guess is zero, meaning you do not want to know.

"Every single county in which blacks make up more than 75 percent of registered voters will see their driver license office closed. Every one."
Alabama Closing Many DMV Offices in Majority Black Counties

In 2011, the Alabama legislature passed a voter ID law requiring voters to bring an approved form of photo identification — such as a state-issued driver's license — to the polls. The law went into effect in 2014, and in 2015 state authorities made a surprising announcement: They'd be shuttering 31 of the roughly 75 driver's license offices in the state, ostensibly due to budgetary problems. As it turned out, many of the offices were located in majority-black counties."

How many sources do you need before the information penetrates the glob of snot clogging your brain?

Still waiting. All you have to do is link a factual post about the 50 mile BS about DMVs in Georgia that you stated. Looks like you made it up

Isn't a state legislature a bi-partisan committee?

I'm getting an evil thought from that and luther's point about a 50/50 committee. Why not just mandate that legislatures have to be a 50/50 mix with no tie breaker provision ... like the ho. Then each side could just concentrate on ensuring there are no "in name onlys", and we'd have a lot more stalemates. Win/win.

Alabama is Georgia?

and BTW - you don't have to have a DL to vote. Plenty of IDs qualify and if you need a free one you can get it in any county.

I really do not have to do anything. You deleted the links I provided and ignored the information instead of doing any work on your own. The only thing you are proving here is that you are a waste time.

There is a better chance that it will backfire; which will be hysterical.
Warnock and Abrams will both be running in 2022, throwing more fuel on the fire was probably not the repubs best move.
