This is what the lines in SW Atlanta looked like today.. Only 3 voting machines!

This makes me sad. I'm happy that so many people are showing up but angry that black people are being put through this never-ending bullcrap.











People try so hard to vote. Republican state officials like Brian Kemp try so hard to stop them.

Ready to wait? Hundreds of voters stand in line for hours this morning at this SW Atlanta polling place. Only three voting machines! What’s going on here? Live report at noon.




I live in a suburban area of NC , it's got to be a lot smaller than this district and we had 6 voting machines at our precinct.



Update: After local Atlanta news crews started showing up they brought in 5 more voting machines!

I want Ms. Abrams to win, isn't Georgia diversified???

I really don't care for that Brian Kemp guy. He's as corrupt as they come.

I'm always proud of those who warn their work they may or may not be in that day and come for the duration.
