Here are the questions that are on the Republican ballot in Georgia. They mention nothing about actually helping their voters in their everyday lives. It's just a bunch of leading questions meant to cause fear and anger. Pure tribalism.

@Jeremythill - That's actually the GOP primary ballot there? That's truly bizarre... like, "banjos in the woods playing the Twilight Zone theme" kind of bizarre. YIKES.

@Jeremythill @A4NY14
That looks like a fundraising poll, the kind to get you to send money but not to actually find out what you say. It's not up to Georgia to set border policy, so they can't put it on their ballot.

@EileenKCarpenter @Jeremythill - It does seem awfully fishy if that's actually on their ballot.

@A4NY14 @Jeremythill

I found the information. Each party in Georgia gets to put questions on their own ballot "to find out what their voters think." But it's their own primary voters only, and they are allowed to make up the questions. So they can turn them into leading questions to gin up their voters. They clearly aren't interested in whether anyone opposes those platform positions.

@Jeremythill @A4NY14
What threw us is that ballot questions in most states are voted on by all voters and have actual consequences. Your questions (well not you personally) are a taxpayer funded political ad.

@EileenKCarpenter @A4NY14 Oh it's totally a partisan ad like you said. I just find their questions to be manipulative and very telling.

@Jeremythill @A4NY14 Yes it is truly insane. I have never seen anything like it at least not here in Oregon. Just mailed our ballots in and there was nothing like that on it at all. The only insane thing I see on ours once in a while is do we pay for more taxes for this or that or not.

@CindersPDX Fortunately, these questions are only on GOP ballots, so it doesn't determine what becomes a law. But I'm sure they will become laws if they stay in power.

@Jeremythill It is hard for me to understand or to even tolerate GOP / Republicans anymore. Maybe because I was born and raised here in PDX (Portland, Oregon) It's not perfect here by any means, but sure as heck far better than other US states. That ballot you show seems so ass backwards. Nothing but to stir up hate & fear and no way to progress forward for all people in GA.
