Andrew Yang moving to Georgia to help Democrats in Senate runoff elections

NY Post ^ | Nov 9 | By Ebony Bowden

Correct. Must have been registered and eligible to vote during the general election to vote during the runoff as per Section 10) of the Georgia Code Title 21. Elections § 21-2-501: (10) The run-off primary, special primary runoff, run-off election, or special election runoff shall be a continuation of the primary, special primary, election, or special election for the particular office concerned.  Only the electors who were duly registered to vote and not subsequently deemed disqualified to vote in the primary, special primary, election, or special election for candidates for that particular office shall be entitled to vote therein, and only those votes cast for the persons designated as candidates in such run-off primary, special primary runoff, run-off election, or special election runoff shall be counted in the tabulation and canvass of the votes cast.  No elector shall vote in a run-off primary or special primary runoff in violation of Code Section 21-2-224 .

I was told that only those that participated in the first election could vote in the runoff...

Nope, apparently "The deadline to register to vote for the runoff is December 7."

[Religion and Politics]

I hope that is true, but media is saying registration up to Dec. 7.

[Skywise]

Stacey Abrams makes it legal.

I have confirmed that there is no restriction on voting in the General Election for the runoff, they ARE accepting new registrations : https://www.wtvm.com/2020/11/09/key-dates-senate-runoff-georgia.

DEFCON 1.

How is this even newsworthy?

[Iowa Slim]

I wouldn’t have said this about many of them, but I thought Yang was a better person than that. That was his projection during the primary season, anyway.

South has seen carpetbaggers before.

Andrew Yang is a genius. He can join the throngs of people moving to Georgia from New York, keeping both his job and more of his money. He finally gets to move about without being surveiled or harrassed. Dinner out at a restaurant!? You betcha. New gym membership!? Why not?

New York is a failed state and shockingly close to flipping red all of a sudden, so best as a blue state operative to migrate to what he thinks is a purple state. From there he can more easily charm Stacy Abrams, who seems to him a good VP running mate in 2028, if not 2024.

Brilliant, Andy!

I’m still waiting for my thousand bucks from Mr. Yang?

[Dacula]

I call the Blue State Immigrants and proudly tell the to NOT NY my Georgia.

[Lee25]

Republicans must unit to fight this!!

[Republican Wildcat]

Ditch shoulda put some effort into boosting John James.

He invested tens of millions of dollars in that race.

[Truth29]

Could you two consult and come up with a definitive answer? Thanks.

So both Senate seats in GA are in runoffs? I thought one had more than 50%, or did the Dems did fraud in that?

[Jim Hill]

Apparently, the Georgia Code Title 21 cited above relates specifically to state and local offices, and not federal offices. Information from the GA Secretary of State says the following:

Runoff elections are held when no candidate wins the required majority of votes.

Anyone who is registered to vote in Georgia can vote in state, local, and federal runoff elections. Check your voter status.

Runoff dates for the 2020 general election are:

Dec. 1 - State and local races (voter registration deadline was Oct. 5)
Jan. 5 - Federal races (Voter registration deadline: Dec. 7)

For more information about runoff elections, contact your County Registrar’s Office.

Yang is the epitome of 3rd world.

He’s all for rigging elections.

[allwrong57]

What the hell does he think he’s going to do in Georgia? Does he have some experience in computerized voter fraud? He is a Dem.
