If I had to guess it’s to protect their identity so that they can vote without being harassed. But I will fully admit I only looked at the picture and didn’t click the link or anything.
Comment on Why are people doing this at voting locations in the USA?

This is not my picture; I only crossposted it. I also only did so because it was apparently being deleted and I wanted it not to be lost (sorry if it’s a loose fit for the community because of that).

Well that’s illegal. They’re probably trying to stir up trouble because Cobb county goes Democrat.

I can’t tell if the original post is an elaborate hoax with a link that never worked in the first place or if something is legit happening. Why would there be lines to vote already? Maybe I’m naive and early voting is that difficult in Georgia that people are lining up now. I don’t know, my ballot gets mailed to me by default and I can just walk up and drop it off any time up until polls close on election day. This feels like it’s a post to sow discord but 🤷♂️

There wasn’t much of a line at 7:00 a.m. a week ago when I voted in that same building, but last year it took me half an hour or so to get up to the door. It’s also typically a little longer wait on weekends.

Yeah I really can’t tell the truth here. All I know is something isn’t right
