In Georgia you better bring food and water for a few days, make your chair a potty-chair, and you just might be able to vote. Seriously, there needs to be a response, like not only organized encouragement to vote, but starting now (!), a drive to get folks out there getting I.D.s, and whatever other bullcrap the thugs can come up with.

Now in Georgia, if you have to wait in line to vote, you will be arrested for loitering. Georgia is fed up with the whole democracy thing and aims to put a stop to it once and for all.

I like to bring a nice cold box of merlot. And a charcuterie assortment.

Georgia’s governor just signed a law making it illegal to give bottled water to people standing in line—but it doesn’t say anything about SELLING it to the waiting voters. So have two people walking the line together: one hands the voter a penny, the one walking just behind sells a bottle of water for a penny.
