U.S. District Judge Leigh Martin May on Wednesday ordered a hearing for next Tuesday in the case the ACLU has brought against Georgia election officials for how they handle absentee ballots they reject because they don’t believe the signatures match those on record. Earlier Wednesday, the ACLU filed a temporary restraining order seeking certain procedures be put in place to let voters address signature mismatch issues before the ballots are rejected.

Now if people just paid their poll tax we wouldn’t have this problem
I would like to know when was the signature the state has on record was signed. My signature wouldn’t match my original signature when I first registered to vote over 30 years ago. Are they matching signatures from the last 5 years or what?
I have no doubt that they are working very hard to find the most dissimilar examples of your signature if you live in certain areas. Other areas, one “X” is as good as another.
People are noticing the way the GOP is acting, and are getting pissed. Are you ready to do something more than vote?
There is still time to help your local/county Democratic Party. I hate what’s happening and volunteered to make phone calls last week. I didn’t have time this week, but will make the time next week to work the phone bank again. You can make calls ( they had cell phones for use), write postcards (supposedly an effective method for firing up infrequent Dem voters), or canvass.
We need people to vote this mid-term. We need to get these people out of office at all levels.
People are already waiting in lines at what polls are open for HOURS to cast their ballots. They are royally pissed off at the GOP trying anything it can think of to limit who votes.
