Satire by Eric Curl / Art by Julia Licht
April 26, 2026 – State lawmakers and Gov. Brian Kemp continue to ignore the dumpster fire created by a state voting system overhaul as its requirements threaten this year’s elections.
Spurred by the ongoing drought of intelligence, lawmakers ignited the flames in 2024 with passage of legislation prohibiting QR codes in vote tabulation by July 1. Then they failed to extinguish the blaze during this year’s legislative session by declining to pass an alternative system or delay the bill’s implementation.
Rather than calling an emergency session, Kemp and state legislators are now leaving local officials to contend with the approaching disaster. Meanwhile, Georgia’s voters are urged to stay indoors, avoid the election booth and use their time to come up with more conspiracy theories to inspire legislation for next year.
