Democrats and their media allies cried “Jim Crow” over Georgia’s 2021 election reforms. It was a political stunt from the start, and Georgia voters, including black voters, have clearly recognized it.
A poll from the University of Georgia found that 90% of voters thought it was easy to vote in the midterm elections. Most voters waited less than 30 minutes to cast a vote. Overall, 95% of voters described their voting experience as “excellent” or “good.” Just 0.6% said their experience was “poor.”This trend holds among black voters. According to the poll, 0% described their voting experience as poor. Over 96% deemed it excellent or good. A total of 99.
UGA poll: 0% of black respondents said their voting experience in Georgia was poor in the 2022 midterm election. Around 73% of black voters said it was excellent, equal to white voters. https://t.co/tQYs54wGgN pic.twitter.com/z67fwEJr0d — Zaid Jilani January 23, 2023 To top it all off, 72.5% of black voters said there was no difference in how difficult or easy it was to vote compared to 2020. Another 19.1% said it was easier to vote than in 2020, which is 6 points higher than the share of white voters who said it was easier. Evidently, Georgia Republicans were really bad at imposing Jim Crow voter suppression tactics.
Of course, the mild voting reforms that made Georgia’s elections more secure also made it easier to vote for most voters. The law never was “Jim Crow on steroids,” as President Joe Biden described it. It was all political theater, whipped up by Democrats so they could promote their own congressional election reforms that would have nationalized elections and allowed Democrats to overrule state election laws.
Democrats are not interested in racism as anything other than a political cudgel. The Jim Crow saga in Georgia was yet another example, and yet there will be no reckoning for any of it. Major League Baseball has repeatedly ducked any conversation about its decision. Establishment media won’t ask Biden about his stance, and, on the off-chance that question does reach Biden, he will continue to portray the law as voter suppression. No one will acknowledge their grotesque, toxic political strategy.
