This is also creating problems within GA's GOP, as they realise this voter suppression can also hurt THEM. Abrams and GA Democrats are on it, so I don't think it will proceed without a fight. Even Raffensperger and Gov. Kemp oppose restricting mail-in voting. After all, it WAS put forward several years ago by the GA GOP. I don't expect things to necessarily sail through without resistance. It'd be curious to see how H.R. 1, currently before Congress, might affect some of these blatantly discriminatory voting restrictions.

Ah yes. Geoff Duncan is boycotting. I smell a run for higher office coming. Kemp has to be careful to not alienate moderate Republicans, suburban women, and the moderate Democrats, since Trumpers want to burn him at the stake.
