How corporations conspire with Democrats to hoard power at the public’s expense

Georgians adopted voter-integrity measures supported by a large majority of Americans, that are in the mainstream of state regulation and in fact are less stringent than the rules in Delaware, President Joe Biden s home state, and New York. By more than a 2-1 margin, Americans think such rules are not unfair or discriminatory.

Nonetheless, these measures have produced an unprecedented effort by large corporations to interfere in the workings of a democratic government. Major League Baseball moved its All-Star Game out of (majority-black) Atlanta to (majority-white) Denver in protest. Coca-Cola s president weighed in against the changes. And in a statement organized by Kenneth Chenault, former chief executive of American Express, and Kenneth Frazier, the chief executive of Merck, hundreds of CEOs voiced opposition. Why?

A cynic would say Georgia is a crucial red state the Democrats managed barely to flip blue in 2020 by adopting unorthodox voting measures and the mega-corporations who ve thrown their lot in with the Democratic Party want to make sure Democrats hold it in 2024. They d like to ensure similar measures apply across America because they make it easier for Democratic voters living and dead to cast votes without identification and without even showing up at the polls, producing a structural advantage for Democrats.
