Shabibilicious Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Georgia's GOP lieutenant governor says Rudy Giuliani's false voter fraud claims triggered voting restrictions Catherine Garcia Thu, April 8, 2021, 12:36 AM Rudy Giuliani's false claims of election fraud weren't enough to overturn the presidential election, but they did motivate Republican lawmakers in Georgia to pass a law that restricts voting rights, the state's Republican lieutenant governor said. Under the new election law, signed by Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) last month, it's harder for voters to request and drop off absentee ballots; ballot drop boxes are limited; voters can't be approached and handed food or water while they wait in line to cast their ballots; and the secretary of state is no longer chairman or a voting member of the Georgia State Election Board. During an interview with CNN on Wednesday, Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) said the restrictions are "the fallout from the 10 weeks of misinformation that flew in from former President Donald Trump. I went back over the weekend to really look at where this really started to gain momentum in the legislature, and it was when Rudy Giuliani showed up in a couple of committee rooms and spent hours spreading misinformation and sowing doubt across, you know, hours of testimony." Joe Biden won Georgia, a fact that was affirmed during three different ballot counts in the state. Giuliani still tried to get Georgia to overturn the election results, appearing before state lawmakers to spread multiple falsehoods, including that thousands of dead people voted. He also claimed, without any evidence, that the voting machines were "like Swiss cheese. You can invade them. You can get in them. You can change the vote." He is now the subject of a $1.3 billion defamation suit filed by Dominion Voting Systems. https://www.yahoo.com/news/georgias-gop-lieutenant-governor-says-043600733.html GO RV, then BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nstoolman1 Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 More lies from the MSM. Georgia's voting laws are less restrictive than other states. Again, there can be food and water passed out while in the line. Just not by partisan organizations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
