The ‘Goddess of Pop’, Cher once again used her Twitter to call out the Republicans’ dream of White supremacy on the new voting laws in Georgia.

According to a report from Georgia Public Broadcasting, the new laws incorporate early voting access, 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.
The singer held her ground of the assertion that those in the Republican party are quietly advocating for White supremacy when a fan commented that the voter laws are bad for democracy.
“THIS IS NOT DEMOCRACY‼️ ITS GOP’S MANTRA ‘WHITE IS RIGHT’,& ‘ONLY THE RIGHT PPL SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO VOTE’ Why aren’t Dems Quaking in Their Boots About The Browning of [America]. I’m Excited.We Are Better Together,” she added.

Using her Twitter as an instrument to controversially challenge political verdicts is not a novel phenomenon. In May 2020, her tweet on Derek Chauvin, the police officer involved in George Floyd’s murder received a major backlash.
