In-person early voting begins today in Georgia, but not everyone who is eligible to vote will have access to the ballot box. This is because Republican Secretary of State and current candidate for governor, Brian Kemp, has been overseeing a massive plan to suppress the votes of black and brown Georgians over the past few years. Just last week, in fact, a lawsuit against Kemp was filed by several civil rights organizations after placing 53,000 voter registrations “on hold”—80 percent of which belong to people who are black, Latino and Asian-American. Since this story has become public, Kemp consistently denies any wrongdoing and wants us to believe there’s nothing fishy happening here. Of course, he’s lying. But his fellow Republican and U.S. Senator from Georgia, David Perdue, takes a different approach altogether. Perdue not only refuses to answer questions about this from his constituents, he actually became violent with one of them while campaigning on the Georgia Tech campus this weekend. xToday @sendavidperdue visited Tech to campaign for Kemp. A student tried asking a simple question about @BrianKempGA 's racist scheme to threaten voter registrations from black people, but before he could even finish the question, Perdue stole his phone. pic.twitter.com/K0iffU57Di— YDSA Georgia Tech (@YDSAGT) October 13, 2018 GET OUT THE VOTE for Democrats.
