6. The GA GOP already did this to Athens-Clarke County, GA

Sun May 5, 2013, 05:36 PM

May 2013

we now have non-partisan county commission and other county elected office elections because we were/are a BLUE town and elections are now held in July (instead of November) when many UGA students are away and many families/year-round residents are on vacation. Did I mention that they split our county into two (GOP majority)state voting districts and redistricted our Democratic congressman out of our district thus eventually inflicting Paul Broun, Jr. on us.

It is just awful. We live in a tiny blue island of NE GA red and the GA GOP rethugs are trying to do us in completely.
