next to zero problems, no ID necessary, plenty of drop boxes

it’s really not that hard

CA does this also, and may have been where it started. It’s basically an “opt-in as default” rather than the opposite. One has to actively opt-out rather than actively opt-in.

My current employer does this for some benefits so that the procrastinator employees don’t lose out

From the people who brought you "But Ma Rights!" and "I don't want the government controlling my life!" Comes....."Giving food or water to people is now a crime!" and the sequel "Please government protect me from the oppression of being offered water while in line to vote."

The republican party is a fucking joke. It's sad.
I only came to kick some ass...

Rock the fucking house and kick some ass.

The Georgia State Constitution states that lawmakers "shall be free from arrest during sessions of the General Assembly" except for treason, felony, or breach of the peace. It is not clear if Cannon is being charged with anything at this time.
