It makes sense when you realize that the state of GA has arranged it so that minorities have to wait in 8 hour lines to vote. People were getting around this by early voting and absentee voting, so of course those got slashed and gutted. Its death by a thousand cuts. Any single item taken alone doesn't seem that bad, but taken in context its obvious what the goal is.
I don't know that its to keep black people from voting, so much as it is to keep Democrats from voting. Black people in GA tend to vote D, so the racism is just a side effect of voter suppression.
