Bloch Warns Georgia to Keep Primary Laws
Macon July 7 Georgia voters face danger of total party control over elections if primary laws are weakened. Charles Bloch Macon attorney warns that repeal or adoption of the South Carolina plan would let the party machinery govern who may vote, potentially barring Blacks and restricting Whites by arbitrary standards. He cites possible state executive rules and claims if Jimmie Carmichael’s ally wins, voting conditions could be set by the governor. Bloch notes Georgia risks similar race issues as surrounding states and argues against weakening safeguards.
