1. And Kemp has signed it

Heading to court.

Damn.

[Beachnutt]

2. How about gatorade ?

specifically water ?

[leftieNanner]

4. Ooh. Good point.

I would offer to read the precise text, but that would make me barf.

Maybe they might allow hot chocolate with the little marshmallows in November.

[xxqqqzme]

34. How about selling it for a penny a bottle?

You're not 'giving' it away. You could carry a couple of rolls of pennies and pass those out as well.

[COL Mustard]

7. Sue The Hell Out Of Them For This

Keep it tied up in Court until it's unenforceable.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

3. The GOP is the party of voter suppression

5. Offer food/water to folks who step out of line temporarily to get it.

30. Psychopaths

as we have evidenced these past four years can also be Sadists.......

[Shermann]

6. Ted Cruz to the rescue!

Only for Republican voters, though. That's OK.

8. I think Democrats should give every voter

a sun umbrella, a water thermos, and a portable stool.
A small enough investment.

[housecat]

9. Great idea!

[scarletwoman]

15. I think that might be considered "buying votes" - which is the rationale behind the "no water" law.

There would need to be some way to provide this sort of aid in such a way that would not be a violation.

[tavernier]

23. Sure.

Give these things for a penny a piece donation through a local charity not connected politically to any party. I can’t imagine it can’t be done somehow. Trump flooded southern Florida with his flags and crap.

[scarletwoman]

25. I have faith that the Georgia Democrats will figure out something.

And we'll see what happens with the coming lawsuits.

[DENVERPOPS]

31. Coolers set up all along the way.

Filled with Ice and drinks. This would also allow for people who need to sit.
AND san-o-lets stationed along the way.........

Question: Why can't all these people be given mail in ballots? or have the Republicans made headway on making them illegal also.
When the Republicans got worried about them last October, they told DeJoy to sabotage the USPS to resolve the situation.....

[Fiendish Thingy]

10. This will be fun to watch police try to enforce

Especially if a few hundred activists show up with cases of water.

[flibbitygiblets]

14. "What are you in for, Pete?" "Handing out water to old ladies."

Everyone and their mother should show up and hand out water, food, give foot massages, manicures, face painting, yoga, you effing name it.

Fuck these assholes who won't let POC vote, but will let a murderous mob of white people storm the United States Capitol, killing and injuring numerous police.

[flibbitygiblets]

11. Everyone knows you can sway peoples' votes with free water.

This is so fucking disgusting.

[Shermann]

17. Water, no

Watch out for the orange Kool-Aid though!

[stillcool]

12. I should be so used to this...

but it still gets me...and managing my mind to perceive only what is real is exhausting.

[cab67]

13. You know what?

I’d be willing to get ticketed for that.

[scarletwoman]

16. What if they then won't allow the recipients to vote, due to the violation of accepting the water?

[cab67]

20. Does this bill penalize those who accept water?

Honest question.

[scarletwoman]

21. Don't know, I haven't read the bill. It's published on the AJC, but I've used up my free views.

I'm sure there'll be some way of finding the text of the bill.

In the meantime, I'm just worried that the Georgia Jim Crow caucus might have included as many ways to penalize the voters as they can.

[SCantiGOP]

18. This will be overturned by a court

but if not, it would be a great opportunity for mass civil disobedience. Have thousands of people show up to hand out water and get their misdemeanor citation, and have all of them refuse to pay and go to jail.
Wouldn't take long to stop the arrests.

[SWBTATTReg]

19. Don't have to hand out the water. Simply sit near by and leave. No one is handing off the water

directly, people found the water sitting there while waiting in line...either that, give water to every one of the 1000s in line, are they going to arrest all of them?

[cayugafalls]

22. Yup, every 50 feet stack several cases of water.

No sign, nothing.

If the police confiscate the water, get pictures and spread it all over. Police steal water for voters in hot sun, imperiling the lives of those waiting in line.

Then sue them for any fainting or dehydration that occurs.

Fuck the Police.

[DENVERPOPS]

32. Biden

could order the national guard to protect the voters.....It's happened before.....

[BobTheSubgenius]

24. How can someone put their name to this awful, AWFUL piece of legislation,

and then go out in public?

[dalton99a]

26. There is no bottom to their treasonous depravity.

[Martin68]

27. Hey, kids, can you spell V-O-T-E-R S-U-P-P-R-E-S-S-I-O-N?

[Aussie105]

28. Nice to see Republicans

are courting votes for them with this rule! /sarcasm

Solution? No matter who you vote for, pack a lunch, bring a chair, anything you will need for the long lineup.

Could have people walking around with food and water, with signs saying 'I would like to help you, but Republicans say NO!'

Or maybe police will just look the other way?

[YoshidaYui]

29. what if the person handing out WATER IS ARMED and wearing an NRA jacket.?

[MasonDreams]

33. Kemp cut 300,000 Ga. voters in the three years before he got "elected"

Stacy , if that election wasn't perverted, would have been Governor.

Remember now, the devil plays fiddle alot better than you do.
