Georgia signed new voting restrictions into law. Fewer drop boxes, stricter ID rules, shorter windows. It’s not “election integrity.” It’s a pre-emptive strike against turnout.
We’ve seen this play before: when people vote in larger numbers, the system suddenly “needs fixing.” Politicians who can’t win with ideas change the rules of the game. It’s as old as Jim Crow, just updated with barcodes and bureaucracy.
The right to vote isn’t being stolen in one dramatic heist. It’s being trimmed down, rule by rule, until the system works only for the people writing the laws.
