Nobody said that. They are equivalent. Very Jim Crow of MLB to move to a state with an ID requirement.
MLB moving out of Georgia to an equivalent state is the point AZ. Keep up

Colorado's 85% participation rate which was brought on by mailing a ballot to all registered voters is being praised. Your narrative works if you leave out key facts about what exactly is going on in Colorado. You are also leaving out the draconian measures the GQP can take in Georgia to take over local elections and giving someone water within 150 feet of a polling place.

The Great Compromise, people love to roll that phrase again. If I was in politics I would give in on voter ID for a national election holiday every two years and mail ballots to all registered voters. MOR you seem to love Colorado so why not?

Edit: 94% holy crap. That is nuts.

Nope. 94% of Coloradoans voted by mail or put it in a drop box. Piece of cake. 76.4 voted.

Still need an ID to register.

Both Colorado and Georgia are very similar. The outrage over this is mind boggling

Yep 1000000+ And Even if they weren’t similar, the outrage is still stupid. if you have any outrage over this, you are making stereotypes about certain groups of people that are either too stupid, lazy or whatever else. Maybe all you outraged people need to look in the mirror and really think about what your problem with this legislation is and why.

Biden says the Masters can stay in Georgia. Whew, I was worried.

I wonder if Colorado has 5 hour waits to vote in some precincts?
Requires some study to limit the number of voting machines to make this happen.

You literally typed it out right here. Good lord it's on the same page. Also, below is straight from the Colorado SOS page. Just like I typed, all registered voters receive a ballot in the mail.

Q1. How do I receive my mail ballot?

A1. Every voter receives a mail ballot. The ballot will be sent to the mailing address you provided for your voter registration file. To check the address on file, or to make any changes to your voter registration visit www.GoVoteColorado.gov.

If you prefer to vote at the polls, you can vote in-person at a voter service and polling center. Please visit www.GoVoteColorado.gov to find your polling locations.

17-19 days of early voting vs 15 in Colorado. Worse
Voter ID required in both states. Only difference is when. You don’t get a ballot in Colorado unless you show ID when you register.
So you actually have to register first with ID Equivalent

You are splitting hairs to get to a narrative. It absolutely does not justify moving the All Star game out of Georgia to Colorado.
Stupidest thing I have seen for a long time.

Still requires and ID to register and a valid sig. Plus, early voting is not as long here as in GA.

Oh yeah, 16 vs. 6 or the number of forms of ID Colorado accepts vs. Georgia. Colorado is all kinds of stricter than Georgia.

Because 16 different options for Id is definitely necessary. Fake outrage over nothing.

Exactly. Like I said just stupid but this will sooner or later backfire on liberals.
