8 Questions will appear on the GOP primary election ballot for voters on May 24.
The State Executive Committee of the Georgia Republican Party has voted to ask the following advisory questions on the Republican Primary Ballot:
- The Biden administration has stopped building the border wall and illegal border crossings have dramatically increased. Should securing our border be a national priority?
- Education is the largest line item in the state budget. Should education dollars follow the student to the school that best fits their need, whether it is public, private, magnet, charter, virtual, or homeschool?
- Florida has passed a law to stop social media platforms from influencing political campaigns by censoring candidates. Should Georgia pass such a law to protect free speech in political campaigns?
- Two of the three current federal work visa programs are lottery based. Should issuance of federal work visas instead be based on job skills?
- Biological males who identify as females have begun competing in female sports. Should schools in Georgia allow biological males to compete in female sports?
- To prevent ballot tampering, state law prohibits political operatives from handling absentee ballots once they have been marked by a voter. To protect the integrity of our elections, should the enforcement of laws against ballot tampering be a priority?
- Absentee drop boxes are vulnerable to illegal ballot trafficking. Should absentee ballot drop boxes be eliminated?
- Crime has dramatically increased throughout the country including in our capital city of Atlanta. Should the citizens of residential areas like the Buckhead community of Atlanta be allowed to vote to create their own city governments and police departments
Suggested advisory questions were solicited from members of the State Committee and then approved by the State Executive Committee.
The questions and answers won’t be binding for state law, but will provide lawmakers with guidance on future legislative initiatives.
