  • The History of Redistricting in Georgia
    GEORGIA LAW REVIEW(DO NOT DELETE) 11/6/2018 8:33 PM THE HISTORY OF REDISTRICTING IN GEORGIA Charles S. Bullock III* In his memoirs, Chief Justice Earl Warren singled out the redistricting cases as the most significant decisions of his tenure on the Court.1 A review of the changes redistricting introduced in Georgia supports Warren’s assessment. Not only have the obligations to equalize populations across districts and to do so in a racially fair manner transformed the makeup of the state’s collegial bodies, Georgia has provided the setting for multiple cases that have defined the requirements to be met when designing districts. Other than the very first adjustments that occurred in the 1960s, changes in Georgia plans had to secure approval from the federal government pursuant to the Voting Rights Act. Also, the first four decades of the Redistricting Revolution occurred with a Democratic legislature and governor in place. Not surprisingly, the partisans in control of redistricting sought to protect their own and as that became difficult they employed more extreme measures. When in the minority, Republicans had no chance to enact plans on their own. Beginning in the 1980s and peaking a decade later, Republicans joined forces with black Democrats to devise alternatives to the proposals of white Democrats. The biracial, bipartisan coalition never had sufficient numbers to enact its ideas. After striking out in the legislature, African-Americans appealed to the U.S. Attorney General alleging that the plans enacted were less favorable to black interests than alternatives * Charles S. Bullock, III is a University Professor of Public and International Affairs at the University of Georgia where he holds the Richard B.

  • BATTLE of KETTLE CREEK Remarks of Judge Ed Butler, Secretary General, NSSAR, Principal Speaker, Kettle Creek Battle Ceremonies, at the Pope Center on Feb
    BATTLE OF KETTLE CREEK Remarks of Judge Ed Butler, Secretary General, NSSAR, principal speaker, Kettle Creek Battle ceremonies, at the Pope Center on Feb. 14, 2009, in Washington, GA. President Towns, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen. We are here today to honor the memory of the Georgia patriots who fought near here 230 years ago today. Through their courage and determination, they defeated an army with over twice as many men under arms. The Battle of Kettle Creek was the most important battle of the American Revolutionary War to be fought in Georgia. The battle was fought on February 14, 1779, near this location at Battle Hill. The victory by the American Patriot Militia virtually ended the movement to remain loyal to the England among Georgians. Loyalist and neutral Georgians were no longer vocal opponents. The Patriot force that engaged a larger Tory Militia force was led by Colonels Andrew Pickens, who later was promoted to General; John Dooly, who was later murdered by British regulars; and Elijah Clarke, who was also later promoted to General. Andrew Pickens lead his own force of 200 militiamen and was joined by the force of100- 140 militiamen led by John Dooly. Together, these 300-340 men launched a surprise attack on the Tory force of 700 men led by Colonel James Boyd. Pickens' force circled and followed the Tory force without their knowledge until he launched the surprise attack on February 14, 1779. The encamped Tories were not wholly surprised, as their pickets fired upon approaching Patriot scouts. Thereafter, a fierce battle ensued and Tory leader James Boyd was killed.

  • Georgia Government 1 (PDF)
    Georgia Government Summary Dr. Sarah Kuck and Mr. Roger Marietta Introduction Georgia’s state government was formed in 1776, and since that time the State Constitution has been rewritten 10 times and amended hundreds of times. To amend the Georgia Constitution today, both houses of the Georgia General Assembly must pass the proposed Constitutional amendment by a two-thirds vote. The amendment ratification is voted on by the people in the next general election, and a majority of the voters must approve. Georgia’s state government and its politics have been shaped by its history. 2011 is the sesquicentennial of the beginning of the Civil War. President Lincoln and General Sherman, as hated Republicans, left a simmering anger as the Civil War and slavery came to an end. The Democratic Party dominated Georgia politics until the period after the Civil War known as Reconstruction. Reconstruction brought the freed slaves into the political process as Republicans, and they gained many elected offices from 1865 until 1877. When the Posse Comitatus Act was passed by Congress and Federal troops could no longer enforce state and local laws, the political winds shifted. From 1877 until 1954, “Jim Crow” laws enforced segregation in Georgia while the Democrats dominated the politics of Georgia under the banner of “state rights”. Many Caucasian voters in Georgia were “Yellow Dog” Democrats – they would vote Democrat even if the candidate was a yellow dog. With the Supreme Court’s reversal of Plessy v Ferguson as a result of Brown v Board of Education of Topeka Kansas, coupled with the emergence of Dr.

  • Voting Rights in Georgia: 1982–2006
    VOTING RIGHTS IN GEORGIA: 1982–2006 ROBERT A. KENGLE* INTRODUCTION In 1965, black citizens of Georgia were profoundly disadvantaged in their ability to exercise the franchise that Congress had meant to extend nearly a century earlier: On the eve of passage of the [Voting Rights Act], fewer than a third of age-eligible blacks in Georgia were registered to vote. The disparities were even greater in the state’s twenty-three counties with black voting- age majorities, where an average of 89 percent of whites, but only 16 percent of blacks, were registered. Despite the fact that blacks were 34 percent of the voting-age population, there were only three black elected officials in the entire state, and they had been elected only in the preced- ing three years. This exclusion from the normal political processes was not fortuitous; it was the result of two centuries of deliberate and system- atic discrimination by the state against its minority population.1 * Robert A. Kengle is a Senior Counsel with the Voting Rights Project at the Lawyers’ Commit- tee for Civil Rights Under Law, in Washington, D.C. He joined the Voting Section of the Civil Rights Division at the United States Department of Justice as an Honor Law Graduate in 1984, and served there until 2005. He received a J.D. from Antioch School of Law in 1984 and a B.A. from Allegheny College in 1978. As a trial attorney in the Voting Section he litigated minority vote dilution claims un- der Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, enforcement and preclearance actions under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act and racial gerrymandering claims under Shaw v.
