We bring this up a lot because it sums up so much of politics today: CBS News White House correspondent Major Garrett has a book to pimp, and while doing the media rounds claimed that the 2020 election was “the greatest success of American democracy in history.” So what happened? How did we go from 2016, where Donald Trump stole the election by colluding with the Russians, to 2020, which was the greatest success in American democracy in history? And then to 2018, where Republican election deniers are up and down the ballot and voter suppression in Georgia, which reported record turnout for early voting, “is beyond anything that we saw in 2018.”

So Jason Johnson is an election denier, even before we have a winner declared.

They're trying to sell it, no one's buying

Georgia…with their historic voter turn-out…whatever, liar.

The GA voting law expanded access to the ballot…
—> expanded weekend early voting
—> allowed anyone to vote absentee
— > even codified drop boxes
Labeling the law a voter suppression measure was always an enormous lie

Lefties will watch this and still say that only the right question election results. You could put together a collage over hours of it, and they'd still deny it.

Sure, Jan.

Honest question, have they ever found one person who was eligible to vote, but was refused entry at a poll? Or have they ever produced one person who couldn't get an ID? Seriously, I'm curious

Furnish examples of voter suppression in current 2022 Georgia.

So suppressed it’s a record early turnout

I was able to vote on October 17th here in GA, what is he talking about?

Another Republican election denier
— Doug Hall (@DougHallOK) November 8, 2022
So the 2020 election is the only one you can’t question. Stacey Abrams is going to lose again and claim it was voter suppression and no one in the media will blink an eye.
