So it's O.K. for Republicans to be messing with the voting process--in a state in which the voting process was subjected to the greatest possible scrutiny and the only 'problem' anybody found was the one Republicans cannot abide: the Democratic candidates won.

In that law the legislature of Georgia gave itself the authority to intervene in any county in the state if it decided that a county wasn't doing 'a good enough job' of counting votes. In effect, 'counting too many votes for a Democrat' could be a basis for intervening--though for sure some other 'reason' would be given. That law is a blatantly anti-democratic. unconstitutional power grab.
