You replied to a question I wrote, not a statement. I'd like to know under what conditions an actual real person has suddenly become disenfranchised and was unable to vote early, on regular poll days, or via mail.
> And nearly 56,000 of them re-registered within the same county, according to the AJC/APM Reports analysis. If their registrations hadn’t been canceled, they would have been able to vote without having to re-register.
> More than half, almost 30,000 Georgia voters, re-registered too late to participate in the close 2018 election for Georgia governor. It’s impossible to know how many of them attempted to vote, but those who tried wouldn’t have had their ballots counted.
> Hourslong waits, problems with new voting machines and a lack of available ballots plagued voters in majority minority counties in Georgia on Tuesday — conditions the secretary of state called "unacceptable" and vowed to investigate.
> In the 2014 midterms, only 33 percent of eligible voters cast a ballot—setting the record for the lowest turnout in any national election of any advanced democracy (except Andorra) since 1945.
> In 25 states, employers are not required to give their employees paid leave to vote; in 19 states, employers are not required to let their employees leave work to vote.
Do you comment or just Google? This is the last one of your Google sessions I will reply to. If you actually have a comment, I would be happy to discuss.

And 0 of those had voted in several prior elections, which is why the law was followed to remove them from the registered rolls.

It doesn't sound like they are active participants. They didn't vote for some time, then they said they registered too late to vote. It's best not to use them as people who are being denied a vote. It is their choices not to have voted for a long time.
> Long lines and malfunctioning voting machines marred statewide primary elections in Georgia, renewing attention on voting rights there.
These voting machines are almost 100% a laughingstock. The very article said that! They have to do with the rush that happened a few years ago to institute voting machines - not with voter suppression but the exact opposite.
> Hourslong waits, problems with new voting machines and a lack of available ballots plagued voters in majority minority counties in Georgia on Tuesday — conditions the secretary of state called "unacceptable" and vowed to investigate.
From the same article you quoted: "Georgia’s secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, blamed local officials in Fulton County, which includes most of the City of Atlanta, and said there were few issues elsewhere, while by midafternoon counties outside Atlanta had begun extending voting hours to account for time lost tending to the new machines."
If everyone else could do what needed to be done, outside of Atlanta, then Atlanta should be investigated - not invisible suppression from the rest of the state onto Atlanta.
