It's Georgia, though. This is a positive development but it barely begins to make up for how much other ass-backwards stuff there is.

This is the state that elected Marjorie Taylor Greene, keep in mind.

A single congressional district within that state elected Marjorie Taylor Greene lol

Hmm if we had a giant solar array in space that could continuously capture sunlight, we could connect it to the Jewish Space Laser™ and beam it down to Earth, hopefully to a collection panel and not to the California forests to cause wildfires.

This is the state that brought you Biden in 2020. And two democratic senators. Granted there's a lot of back ass districts here, but we're working on it I promise.

Hopefully Georgia steps up and sticks to their guns with prosecuting people who attempt to convince election officials "to find 11,780 votes".

That seems completely forgivable when compared to Florida and the men they keep electing governor of that state.
