1. Many media outlets are reporting Georgia's new voting law restricts voting in some ways but expands early voting For many Georgians THIS ISN'T TRUE In counties with lots of Democrats & people of color, the bill RESTRICTS EARLY VOTING Facts matter Follow along if interested — PolitiTweet.org

There wasn't an ID requirement for absentee voting because in 2005, when GEORGIA REPUBLICANS put no excuse absentee voting into place, they argued it was MORE SECURE than in person voting It wasn't until young people & people of color started voting by mail that we needed IDs — PolitiTweet.org

2. The article notes voters could chose to bring their own water. An interesting point that is totally irrelevant. It's also not illegal to give water to a poll worker and hope they make it available to voters. OK. But it's still a crime to give water to someone waiting in line — PolitiTweet.org

1. This article claims Joe Biden is falsely claiming that Georgia's new voter suppression law makes it a crime to give someone waiting in line to vote water. It also quotes the law. WHICH DOES EXACTLY WHAT JOE BIDEN SAYS IT DOES. — PolitiTweet.org

@CocaCola 3. The Metro Atlanta Chamber, which represents all the state's major businesses but did not directly oppose the bill, says that "concerns remain" about the bill. Well, the bill is now a law. https://t.co/EICFXwVIXE — PolitiTweet.org
