Poll Suggests Georgians Oppose Key Voting Restrictions

A new Target Smart poll in Georgia finds broad majorities of the public oppose several aspects of SB 202, the voting restriction bill that’s currently advancing in Georgia’s legislature:

• 77% oppose criminalizing the distribution of food and water to people standing in line waiting to vote.
• 76% oppose allowing the state legislature to take election authority away from local elections officials, counties, and the Secretary of State.
• 70% oppose throwing out the vote of any eligible voter who votes at the wrong precinct location, regardless of circumstances like being given incorrect information by an election official.
