Voting rights and community groups Say their grassroots efforts to Work

Georgia’s 2022 election season ended dramatically this past week, but that was because of the closely watched Senate runoff that solidified Democratic control of the chamber and not for any large-scale problems with voting. “Georgia’s election system has been challenged and scrutinized and criticized and passed every test,” Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement after Tuesday’s runoff, citing high turnout. https://reallygoodemails.com/ufc282ppvlivefree https://reallygoodemails.com/ufc282ppvlivefree?ppv.official https://player.soundon.fm/p/c9f91c8c-049c-46a0-a4b4-14471507135b https://player.soundon.fm/p/c9f91c8c-049c-46a0-a4b4-14471507135b?mma=guide https://tealfeed.com/mma-ufc-282-live-broadcast-free-tsv1r https://tealfeed.com/mma-ufc-282-live-broadcast-free-tsv1r?ppv.extream https://tealfeed.com/ufc-282streams-jan-blachowicz-vs-magomed-4bjqp https://tealfeed.com/ufc-282streams-jan-blachowicz-vs-magomed-4bjqp?db.pabna https://tealfeed.com/livestreamfight-ufc-282-live-broadcast-free-dgqam https://tealfeed.com/livestreamfight-ufc-282-live-broadcast-free-dgqam?strem=tvk https://tealfeed.com/livestreams-ufc-282-bachowicz-vs-ankalaev-jovsq https://tealfeed.com/livestreams-ufc-282-bachowicz-vs-ankalaev-jovsq?extream.tv https://tealfeed.com/livestreamsufc-282-live-broadcast-free-jan-m4fgy https://tealfeed.com/livestreamsufc-282-live-broadcast-free-jan-m4fgy?=hdfdk https://tealfeed.com/sppv-ufc-282-bachowicz-vs-ankalaev-oumog https://tealfeed.com/sppv-ufc-282-bachowicz-vs-ankalaev-oumog?=fight.office https://opensea.io/collection/mma-ufc-282-live-broadcast-free-tv-channel-10-dece https://opensea.io/collection/mma-ufc-282-live-broadcast-free-tv-channel-10-dece?=ppvmma https://challonge.com/13ta9w4l https://challonge.com/13ta9w4l?=pvmdk https://new.c.mi.com/br/post/36743/WATCHFREE_UFC_282_LiveStream_Online_TV_Broadcast_1 https://new.c.mi.com/br/post/36743 https://zenodo.org/record/7422805 https://reallygoodemails.com/ufc282ontvfreeppv https://reallygoodemails.com/ufc282ontvfreeppv?steve.ppv https://opensea.io/collection/streams-ufc-282-live-free-broadcast-online-tv https://opensea.io/collection/streams-ufc-282-live-free-broadcast-online-tv?=light https://tealfeed.com/ppvufc-282-live-crackstream-reddit-alternatives-gcnie https://tealfeed.com/ppvufc-282-live-crackstream-reddit-alternatives-gcnie?genuine https://player.soundon.fm/p/b4bab4d0-4b18-4c18-a3da-b210f9360612 https://player.soundon.fm/p/b4bab4d0-4b18-4c18-a3da-b210f9360612?=hondasy.tv https://challonge.com/prs2mefq https://challonge.com/prs2mefq?jdfkd https://new.c.mi.com/br/post/36769/PPVLIVEMMA_UFC_282_live_crackstream_and_Reddit_alt https://new.c.mi.com/br/post/36769 https://zenodo.org/record/7422850 https://zenodo.org/record/7422920 https://reallygoodemails.com/ufc282onfreeppv https://reallygoodemails.com/ufc282onfreeppv?=coverage https://opensea.io/collection/ufc-282-live-stream-buffer-free-anywhere https://opensea.io/collection/ufc-282-live-stream-buffer-free-anywhere?ppv.inline https://tealfeed.com/dec-10-ufc-282-bachowicz-vs-wzape https://tealfeed.com/dec-10-ufc-282-bachowicz-vs-wzape?mma.tov https://player.soundon.fm/p/c306f5e7-7b76-4c30-b4f7-fcaaca5de715 https://player.soundon.fm/p/c306f5e7-7b76-4c30-b4f7-fcaaca5de715?=fire.tv https://challonge.com/bjpd29y4 https://challonge.com/bjpd29y4?weight https://new.c.mi.com/br/post/36789/LIVEFight_UFC_282_B%C5%82achowicz_vs_Ankalaev_Live_Broa https://new.c.mi.com/br/post/36789 https://zenodo.org/record/7422969 https://pastebin.com/tUGhaQXk https://www.geany.org/p/d5HwD/ https://pastelink.net/7yq73x5u https://challonge.com/93v92u3r https://ide.geeksforgeeks.org/333a151c-91b4-451d-83e8-ecc1b5a4d0ab https://pastebin.pl/view/254b0aa7 https://www.vingle.net/posts/5072973 https://paste2.org/9a45sc3O https://justetext.com/WSPXUDPxaL https://paste.rs/vDd https://pasteio.com/xtAAxonH1lgj https://www.pastery.net/sjcsdy/ https://paste.ee/p/GP3rm https://bitbin.it/NoFEadtq/ https://paiza.io/projects/NKE82QrJDfe9cYjTSke8og https://notes.io/qbpeQ https://p.teknik.io/nYoPr https://ideone.com/AUrqyU Voting rights and community groups Say their grassroots efforts to Work around the new restrictions were key to the relatively strong turnout. But they also caution that they don’t know how many people might have been deterred from voting. The overhaul of the state’s election laws, known as Senate Bill 202, was passed by the Republican-controlled Legislature after Democrats won the 2020 presidential contest and two Senate runoff elections in early 2021. The law shortened the time period to request an absentee ballot and addressed several issues that had arisen during the pandemic election of 2020. To ease the process for voters concerned about COVID-19, the state created an online portal for mail ballot requests while counties deployed drop boxes. After the 2020 election, state lawmakers said voters should be required to sign absentee ballot applications by hand, meaning they needed access to a printer. And while lawmakers established drop boxes as legal, they put limits on how many could be used by each jurisdiction and when those boxes would be accessible. This resulted in fewer drop boxes in the state’s most populous counties. Tennessee man who authorities say came to Washington ahead of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot prepared for violence in a car full of weapons and assaulted officers who were trying to defend the Capitol was sentenced Friday to more than five years behind bars. Ronald Sandlin, 35, of Millington, Tenn., pleaded guilty in September to conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding and assaulting, resisting or impeding officers. Two other men were separately each sentenced Friday to four years in prison Friday for their actions connected to the riot. Sandlin, who authorities say adhered to the QAnon conspiracy theory, and two other men traveled from Tennessee to the Washington area in a rental car packed with two pistols, two magazines of ammunition, cans of bear mace, gas masks, body armor, several knives and other gear, according to prosecutors. Two days before the insurrection, Sandlin posted on social media a picture of another man lying on a bed holding a gun and wrote: “My fellow patriot ... sleeping ready for the boogaloo Jan 6,” according to court papers. Authorities say “boogaloo” referred to civil war. On Jan. 6, prosecutors say Sandlin led the mob’s charge against officers at two points at the Capitol, shoved officers and tried to rip the helmet off of one of them. He shouted at officers: “Your life is not worth it... you’re going to die, get out of the way,” according to court papers. Inside the building, Sandlin smoked a marijuana joint in the rotunda of the Capitol and stole a book from an office, prosecutors say. Sandlin’s lawyer wrote in court papers that his client “allowed himself to believe in lies and disinformation.” In a letter to the judge, Sandlin apologized to the officers he assaulted and the lawmakers at the Capitol. “I believe January 6, 2021 was a national tragedy for everyone involved and I hope my judgement will help the healing process moving forward,” he wrote. Separately on Friday, Nicholas Ochs, 36, the founder of the Hawaii Proud Boys chapter, and Nicholas DeCarlo, 32, a Fort Worth, Texas, man who was with Ochs on Jan. 6, were each sentenced to four years in prison for their roles in the riot. Ochs, a onetime Republican candidate for the Hawaii House of Representatives, and DeCarlo both pleaded guilty in September to obstructing Congress’ certification of the vote. Ochs and DeCarlo were captured in a widely shared photo giving a thumbs-up sign in front of a Capitol door that had been defaced with the words “Murder the Media” — the name of the social media channel they shared. Authorities say DeCarlo scrawled the words on the door. They attended the “Stop the Steal” rally near the White House on the morning of Jan. 6 and then marched together to the Capitol. Video shows them throwing smoke grenades toward a line of police trying to keep the mob from the stage set up for Biden’s inauguration, authorities say. DeCarlo also rummaged through a Capitol police officer’s bag and stole a pair of plastic handcuffs, prosecutors said. Russian forces have turned the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut into ruins, President Volodymyr Zelensky said, while Ukraine’s military on Saturday reported missile, rocket and air strikes in multiple parts of the country that Moscow is trying to conquer after months of resistance. The latest battles of Russia’s 9 1/2 month war in Ukraine have centered on four provinces that Russian President Vladimir Putin triumphantly — and illegally — claimed to have annexed in late September. The fighting indicates Russia’s struggle to establish control of those regions and Ukraine’s persistence to reclaim them. Zelensky said the situation “remains very difficult” in several frontline cities in eastern Ukraine’s Donetsk and Luhansk provinces. Together, the provinces make up the Donbas, an expansive industrial region bordering Russia that Putin identified as a focus from the war’s outset and where Moscow-backed separatists have fought since 2014. Some buildings remain standing in Bakhmut, and the last residents still there mill about the streets. But like Mariupol and other contested cities, it endured a long siege and spent weeks without water and power even before Moscow launched massive strikes to take out public utilities across Ukraine.
