Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
WATCH: Out-Of-Touch Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp Suggests Voters Waiting in Long Lines Can “Order UberEats”
Kemp: “They can order a pizza. They can order Grubhub or UberEats.”
Today on Newsmax, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp defended his voter suppression bill that criminalizes giving food or water to people waiting in long lines to vote by suggesting they can just “order UberEats.” (I mean, it’s one banana Michael. What could it cost, $10?)
Gov. Kemp’s ridiculous suggestion for dealing with long lines made even worse by his voter suppression bill is right in line with Republicans’ out-of-touch agenda in Georgia. Earlier this month, Kemp signed into law a bill restricting Georgians’ voting rights and seeking to disenfranchise Black voters. The law creates more barriers for voting absentee, limits drop boxes, and criminalizes handing out water to voters waiting in long lines.
The voter suppression bill has caused an uproar across the United States and has even prompted businesses to move out of Georgia, citing conflicting values – the MLB relocated their All-Star Game to Colorado, which is run by a Democratic governor and offers expansive access to voting.
