Mitch McConnell Calls Coca-Cola, MLB and Delta 'Quite Stupid' for Opposing Voting Restrictions On 4/6/21 at 2:41 PM EDT Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, called MLB and companies such as Coca-Cola and Delta Air Lines that have come out in opposition to newly approved voter restrictions in Georgia "quite stupid." Georgia's Legislature, which is controlled by Republicans, last month passed a package significantly changing the state's election laws. Democrats, activists and a growing number of companies have come out against the legislation, which was signed into law by Georgia's Republican Governor Brian Kemp. Critics argue that it makes it harder for people to vote. Similar legislation has been passed in the Texas Senate, while GOP-controlled Legislatures across the country are considering related election laws.
