Following surprise losses in November and January, Republican legislators in Georgia are aggressively pushing legislation to restrict voting before the next election. The purpose of these bills is both to validate Trump's false claims of electoral fraud and to make it more difficult for Democratic-leaning constituencies, particularly communities of color, to cast their ballots in the next election. An investigation by Popular Information, encompassing thousands of Georgia campaign finance records filed over the last three years, reveals that the Republican elected officials sponsoring these bills are backed by millions in corporate donations.
It's astounding that these republicans are even able to utter the word 'fraud'. That's their entire strategy. To defraud the people they claim to represent. These fake patriots don't know the meaning of the word. "Mounting Evidence"? What evidence? They have produced zero. Time to expel these clowns from their positions. They cannot be counted on to do the work of the people when they believe in conspiracy theories and the incoherent ramblings of an orange loser. Keep hitting these lying corporations where it hurts Judd.
Thanks for this list, Judd, but the very idea that any company or person would willingly get behind restricting voting is just plain UNDEMOCRATIC. Every effort must be made to STOP ALL THIS IN ITS TRACKS. If we no longer want to live in a democracy, then so be it. No more pussyfooting about with the pretense of voter fraud. Lets just end our democracy and hand control over to powerful corporations and greedy, self serving politicians (ie Republicans) Because if we do not put a stop to all this NOW, that’s where our country will be. A Fascist State.
Think the Dems should start fighting in each state (thank you Stacey Abrams!) to get Dems elected - state legislatures are the hotbed of con QANON officials, who then move up to Congress - see MTG, Cawthorn, Boebert, worst dummies ever sent to Washington. Insidious know nothings. Get them out of state government so they have NO PATH to federal!!
What would be the best way to contact these companies?

Judd, any sense of how involved ALEC is in crafting all this legislation?

"Two-faced." That's the word that best describes these companies.
JUDD, YOU NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS.
