1,036 residents of Cobb County, Georgia, requested a mail-in ballot but never received it
The deadline for some residents of Cobb County, Georgia, to return their mail-in ballots was extended by a judge on Monday after election officials failed to send out ballots to 1,036 people who requested them.
Some of the affected voters filed a lawsuit over the weekend asking for an extension after election officials admitted that the mistake was due to an error on their part.
"This is an important result for these Cobb County voters, who through no fault of their own did not receive the absentee ballots to which they were legally entitled," Jonathan Topaz, an attorney at the American Civil Liberties Union’s Voting Rights Project, said in a statement.
About 250 of the 1,036 voters who requested a ballot but never received it had already voted in person during early voting. The lawsuit said that many of the others may not be able to vote without the extension.

NOPE! Go vote in person today.
Exactly most locations now have early voting. There is almost no need for mail in ballots.
The judge is a shitbag, subhuman, who should ot spend another day on the be ch.
Cobb County, where I grew up 50+ years ago, was a respectable county back then. Now I think its been turned into North Fulton County.
NV main means(preferred by the dem led CONgress) is mail in but optional in person voting ran from 10/22-11/4 with the big finale today. We went to in person on day 3 of early voting. The state requests you bring in your blank mail-in for them to dispose of. Uh, NO! I’ll grind it up myself than you very much. Also, they state you can go to any precinct in your county and vote. I suppose provisionally until the confirm. No ID required.
mass use of mail-in ballots are prima facie evidence of a corrupt election
Next they’ll be saying if you do it for one you need to do it for all.
Why do they need Mail In Ballots? Covid is OVER.
Of course, none of this would be an issue if the legislature had done it’s job and not took a knee to Kemp, Raffensberger, Ralston and Miller when they revised the election law in 2020. Originally, the bill banned, Mail in Voting and Drop Boxes altogether. The aforementioned made sure that that language was removed.
Interestingly, Miller unsuccessfully ran for Lt Gov, thank the Lord. It would have been one RINO replacing another RINO(Duncan). But one of his campaign issues was banning, Mail In Voting and Drop Boxes. Haven’t read or heard about any legislation that he put forward about that. Must have been another campaign lie in an attemtp to get some votes.
He was crushed in the primary.
Kissing Black Ass
Thinking back to the olden days, paper ballots on election day only.
What happened if a blizzard blocked all travel in South Dakota, for example, on election day?
Today as Los Angeles is prepping for big rain storm and flooding with some mandatory evacuations, one polling place (a school I think) has been closed.
What is the provision for that? How did they handle that, historically?
The state requests you bring in your blank mail-in for them to dispose of.
= = =
I fill it in before giving it to them, ‘to dispose’.
then vote in the booth.
Clever tactic. Dishonest but clever.
Exactly.
And they could go get a lawyer to file a lawsuit, but they could not just go to the poll and vote today, because???
If voting is so important to them, they’d get off of their asses and go vote today. Still plenty of time.
So much for no shenanigans in Georgia.
The steal is on...
They had a list of those gipped out of a requested ballot via government clerical error, about 20% of those on the list had already voted otherwise. IF the extension ONLY applies to the remaining ~80% listed the judge’s remedy sounds reasonable. As opposed to the extra hours for everyone because a urinal leaked judge last election.
