Over 250,000 Vote Early in Georgia, Challenging 'Jim Crow' Claims That Prompted MLB's All-Star Game Move
Oct 15, 2024, 11:42 PM
Georgia's new voting laws, previously criticized by prominent Democrats as akin to "Jim Crow 2.0," are under fresh scrutiny as early voting numbers surpass 250,000. Governor Brian Kemp and others have highlighted the high voter turnout to counter claims made by President Joe Biden, who said the laws make "Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle," Vice President Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams, who called them "Jim Crow in a suit and tie," and Senators Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff. Critics point out that companies like Major League Baseball (MLB) and Delta Air Lines acted on these claims, with MLB moving the All-Star Game from Atlanta. They argue that the strong early voting figures demonstrate that the laws have not suppressed voter participation and have called for acknowledgment from those who previously condemned the legislation.
