re: For the "Georgia is a blue state in the realm of CA, NY, IL" crowd, quick question...

Put a wall around Fulton, Clayton, Dekalb and Henry Counties and declare they are no longer part of Georgia.

Signed witness and visit from certified state official under penalty of perjury oath before mail-in vote counts. Heck, just have the official pick it up along with a photo of of the person holding up their drivers or other photo id.

Georgia uses ERIC.

Alabama was wise to ditch this bogus scam. The AL SoS found the DC ERIC offices are abandoned.

On February 15, 2023, Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen made an unannounced visit to the published address of the headquarters of the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) at 1201 Connecticut Ave NW Ste 600 in Washington, DC. Upon arriving at the address, Allen found that the location was actually the home of a virtual shared workspace and that no ERIC headquarters existed at the location.

“I was in DC for a meeting of the National Association of Secretaries of States and, since I was in town, I went to see the ERIC Headquarters,” Allen explained. “What I found was that there was no ERIC headquarters at that address. There were no employees. There were no servers. There was no ERIC presence of any kind. Instead, I found a virtual office that is rentable by the day. What it was missing was people, servers and any sign of the ERIC team.”

Despite publishing the Connecticut Avenue address as its official address on its website, the location is actually operated by Expansive, a company that offers virtual workspaces across the country and rents space by the day.

“Before I took office, Alabama transmitted the personal information of millions of our citizens to this private organization for the past several years. That information is stored on a server somewhere but we do not know where. There is no ERIC operation at the location they claim is their office,” Allen said. “A lot of personal data and taxpayer money has been transferred to ERIC. Where is that data? Where are the employees? Where are the offices? Where are the computers?”

Allen served in the Alabama House of Representatives and as the Probate Judge of Pike County prior to being elected Secretary of State. Election security has always been a priority, both as the senior elections official in Pike County and as a legislator. Since taking office, he has been meeting with state agencies to establish methods for ensuring that Alabama’s voter lists are clean and accurate.

Allen was elected as Alabama’s 54th Secretary of State in November and was inaugurated in January. Withdrawing Alabama from ERIC was Allen’s first act as Secretary of State. The official withdrawal process takes 90 days, meaning Alabama will be officially withdrawn by mid-April. Allen has ceased transmitting any data from Alabama to ERIC.

If you are referring to state elections, many voters vote one way in state and local elections but do the exact opposite in national elections for the Senate or President. I am not sure what point it is that you are trying to make, that RINO’s will get elected in a purple state? Huge shock, Georgia has been drifting leftward since the 2004 election in terms of Presidential and Senate elections: Obama got 47% in 08’, 46% in 2012, Clinton 46% in 2016, and Biden 50% in 2020. The last time a Democrat got less than 45% of the vote was 2004. You can pretend that it’s flawed candidates but the reality is elections with national implications in Georgia have drifted leftward since Bush.

We have fully corrupt Gov. Brian Kemp and beyond fully corrupt plus stupid as a cockroach SoS Brad Raffensperger (a disgrace to both their families).

CCP Kemp isn't getting rid of ERIC or Dominion unless forced by the legislature and courts.

How did all the other Republicans on the 2022 ballot win by 7-8 points? Can you explain that?

People not from around here don't understand the extent to which the Left funded a smear campaign against Walker. There were many other races on that ballot, but the DNC machine went all in on Walker, with mashups of video, out of context, pure bullshite, to make him up to be a wife beating schitz. But, that's politics. The RNC got out spent and out campaigned by the DNC in that race, because the truth of the matter is that Warnock actually did catch a domestic charge less than two years before the election, where Walker's was a decade earlier and he was never actually charged. But the voters didn't know that, because every ad on TV and youtube and social media was telling you that Walker was the domestic abuser. The RNC simply got outplayed on that race. And DESPITE all that, Walker still forced it to a runoff. The DNC again outplayed the RNC and got their voters to the polls in the runoff at a greater clip than the RNC did.

Georgia's not blue. Walker was just a terrible candidate.
