How many Georgia counties and mystery JUDGES are changing or ignoring election law as I type? There’s no telling. Cobb, Fulton, Forsyth and Gwinnett, all reportedly with multiple irregularities. Don’t sip that weekend cocktail, or sneeze, or you might miss something. 

According to multiple sources, these metro counties are spontaneously “observing special weekend operations” — taking (and maybe counting? Shredding? Adding to?) ballots (absentee? Early voting? Who knows?) this weekend and not letting poll watchers (republicans) in.

This week saw the beginning of early voting in Cobb County.  With it comes a push by the county commission to vote for a transit tax that if approved would impose a 1% sales tax for the next 30 years.  Think about that for a moment; your middle schooler would be in their mid 40s at the end of the tax.

There are many issues I see with this proposed transit tax.  First, and foremost is calling it an MSPLOST.  By definition, a SPLOST is a Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax. Many will remember my numerous NO votes for previous SPLOST proposals because I felt that the project list was mostly wants and not needs.
