REPUBLICAN PARTY QUESTIONS: (VOTE YES OR NO)
1. For future elections, do you want hand marked paper ballots, scanned and verified by hand count on live stream video?
2. Should the legislature enact the FairTax replacing the state income tax and state sales tax with a consumption tax equal to current state funding and taxing no legal
citizen or family up to the poverty level of spending?
3. Should the legislature ban registered lobbyists from serving on the State Elections Board?
4. Should the Georgia Republican Primary have a closed primary, meaning that only registered Republicans would be allowed to vote in the Republican Primary?
5. Should public officials who allow illegal migration to occur be held responsible for crimes committed by illegal aliens?
6. Would you support a statewide vote to allow gaming in Georgia so the voters can decide this issue instead of politicians in Atlanta?
7. Currently, hundreds of thousands of hours and dollars are spent every year cleaning up voter rolls. Would you support an amendment to the National Voting Rights Act
that would require registered voters to renew their registration every four years?
8. Do you believe unelected and unaccountable international bureaucrats, like the UN controlled World Health Organization (WHO), should have complete control over
management of future pandemics in the United States and authority to regulate your healthcare and personal health choices?
