Georgia County That Voted For Biden To Lose $100 Million Over MLB Relocating Game After Biden Remarks
2021-04-05
[DAILYWIRE] The Georgia county that was set to host the 2020 Major League Baseball All Star Game said over the weekend that it will lose more than $100 million after the league pulled the game and draft out of the state — a decision that comes after Democrats made a number of false claims about the state’s new election law and signaled they would support the league boycotting the state.

Holly Quinlan, president and CEO of Cobb Travel and Tourism, said that the "estimated lost economic impact" for the county was more than $100 million.

"This event would have directly impacted our county and the state, as visitors spend their dollars on local accommodations, transportation, entertainment and recreation, food and retail throughout the county," Cobb County Travel and Tourism said. "This would have been a big boost to Cobb businesses and help with recovery after the COVID-19 pandemic."

#9  You need an ID for damn near everything these days. I don't buy the argument that requiring voter ID is voter suppression. The same argument applies to mail-in ballots or strictly limiting mail-in ballot--it does not present a hardship or suppress votes. COVID 19 was just an excuse to try to weasel-in another lefty vote rigging scheme to insure the Dems control government forever. You don't like a two-party system. You are going to absolutely going to hate a one-party system. After 2020, we are rapidly approaching that Dem dream.

#8  Cobb County was Republican for a lot of years.

Democrats escaping from Fulton brought their politics with them.
