The Democrats are wasting no time in denying they lost the election. MSNBC guest, Jason Johnson claims that voter suppression is worse than it was in 2018. What makes this hilarious is that he made the claim before the polls closed and because of the new record number of people who voted. I guess when you have nothing to cheer about, you have to make crap up. And no one is better than that than the Democrats.

ELECTION DENIER ALERT!!!
Johnson said:
“In the state of Georgia, thanks to Brian Kemp and Raffensperger, they changed the state law so that you cannot get a provisional ballot in Georgia before 5 o’clock. So if you waited in line for two and a half hours, got there, and they said, ‘Oh, there’s some sort of mistake,’ you can’t get a provisional ballot here.”
“The level of voter suppression is beyond anything that we saw in 2018, so I think it’s completely up in the air. There has been youth turnout at levels we haven’t expected. Democrats feel confident, Republicans I’ve spoken to feel confident. But we can’t say that whatever happens tonight is a fair and equitable election because there have been too many laws passed by election deniers to keep people from being able to express themselves.”
The provisional ballot rule Johnson mentioned, according to the Georgia Secretary of State’s office, has to do with voters who are registered in the county where they live but are trying to vote at the wrong precinct. This can be done after 5PM but most people just leave and go to the correct precinct.
The provisional ballot rule Johnson mentioned, according to the Georgia Secretary of State’s office, applies to voters who are registered in the county where they are trying to vote, but are attempting to vote at the wrong precinct.
Provisional ballots can be filed at the wrong precinct after 5 p.m. — but the voters can also choose to leave the wrong precinct and cast a standard ballot at the correct precinct at any time during polling place hours.
Second-time Georgia gubernatorial hopeful Stacey Abrams (D) has also spoken out ahead of the election, claiming that the record turnout in early voting did nothing to assuage her fears that voter suppression was still happening on a grand scale.

Aoc shut your mouth every time you speak nothing, but sh*t comes out
I have to agree with him it certainly wasn’t fair or equitable. In AZ we had to try 3 different polling places before we were allowed to vote. Tabulators and systems weren’t working. Also in AZ the secretary of state that handles the elections is also running against Kari Lake for the governor position. She was asked to recuse herself and said NO. In PA a dead man was elected to the senate. But I’m sure they were all fair elections in 2022. Similar to 2020.
