“I think overall elections in the United States are more secure than sometimes we seem to believe,” Luis said while standing in line at an Abrams tour stop in Marietta.

“There’s always going to be somebody trying to circuit the system,” Paul said while shopping in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood. “But I think for the most part, I would have to agree with the procedures they got in place.”

Abrams has repeatedly accused Gov. Brian Kemp of abusing his position as then-secretary of state to steal the 2018 election. She and other high-profile Democrats have also decried Georgia’s Election Integrity Act, which requires photo ID to verify identity in absentee ballot applications and shortens the window to apply for ballots to 67 days, among other changes.

President Biden characterized the law as “Jim Crow 2.0.”
“I think it’s just a thing that Democrats say, that it’s unfair when already there’s been more voting, there’s a record turnout pre-voting already,” Phil said. “If it was somehow keeping people at home, I don’t see any evidence for that.”
