Mark Hamill, Hollywood stars say they won't work in Georgia due to new voting legislation
Fox News ^ | March 31, 2021 | Tyler McCarthy

After Gov. Brian Kemp signed Georgia’s new voting legislation into law, some in Hollywood are calling for a boycott of the state’s bustling film and TV industry.

"Star Wars" actor Mark Hamill and "Ford v Ferrari" director James Mangold were among the first to announce they plan to avoid working in the state until something is done about the new law, which some, including President Joe Biden, say restricts voting access and eligibility in the state, which leaned in favor of the Democrats on the ticket in the 2020 general election.

The new law adds early voting access for most counties, adding an additional mandatory Saturday and codifying Sunday hours as optional, according to a report from Georgia Public Broadcasting. It also standardizes early voting hours from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. or as long as 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.; makes it mandatory to present a state-issued ID when requesting an absentee ballot; limits the number of drop boxes in the state, requiring them to be placed at early voting locations and only available while the precinct is open; and prohibits handing out food and water within 150 feet of the polling place or 25 feet of any voter in line, although poll workers are exempted.

Is that the reason he won’t go to Georgia, or is it because they don’t allow sister-kissing?

If I recall correctly, Hollywood idiots also want to boycott Georgia over an abortion law passed a few years ago.

Hilarious. How can Georgia possibly survive without voter fraud and some candy ass from Star Wars?

Hilarious. All that work Kemp did on behalf of Team Uniparty to certify the stolen election goes up the chimney in only two months. I hope he enjoys the coming long hot summer.

No they don’t know what is in the law. They just parrot back what people on MSNBC say.

I wish that I could avoid flying over or driving through the sick-ass state of “Joja!”

How dare a state try to run it’s own elections without asking permission from Hollywood and multinational corporations?

Mark Hamill thinks he is a Star Wars character; pathetic.

Nothing worse than a stupid partisan. No hope for these people.

The one thing they do understand is ridicule. Hamil is a lightweight actor as demonstrated by the Star Wars series. His scene with Darth Vader near the end of Return of the Jedi is quite embarrassing. I’ve seen better acting in high school plays.
