Political Rewind: Absentee Ballots, Drop Boxes And Election Boards? Unpacking Ga.'s New Election Law
Tuesday on Political Rewind: The partisan fight to define Georgia\u2019s new election law continues. SB 202\xa0shapes\xa0how ballots are cast, votes are processed and who oversees the state\u2019s elections.\xa0\n\nRepublicans insist the law establishes a consistent electoral\xa0framework across the state and raise\xa0voter\xa0confidence in\xa0elections. Dissenters call the bill an overt effort to suppress the votes of a growing, diverse Democratic electorate in the state.\n\nIt is not\xa0surprising the\xa098-page GOP bill, filed at the last minute in the 2021 session,\xa0might lead Georgians to wonder just how lawmakers have reshaped elections.\n\nOur panel attempts\xa0to answer your questions while digging into the weeds of the bill.\n\nRep.
