Why did MLB pull the All-Star game from Atlanta?
They say that it is because of a voting rights law that was passed but that law is more liberal than the current voting laws in New York and Delaware. Why isn't MLB moving it's headquarters from NY?

Funny thing is the vote was counted several times and all were about the same. It was just an honest win for the Democratic party. Why do they need to fix something that isn't broken? After all one term with Donald Trump has really shown how much he is not cut out to lead the nation.

Because it would put control of the votes being counted by the state government for any reason they see fit. So your vote might not count if they feel like it. And they need no proof to hold them out of the process.

It's even more liberal on Mars. What about, MLB moving its headquarters to Mars?

Its more of a token gesture, in no small part for the publicity

How do you gather New "Your" has more restrictive voting rights?

@Funtoy4u Let me break it down. You register to vote at the DMV. During an election they mail you your polling station. When you go there, they ask your name, age adress. They look you up, you sign in. If you someone manages to figure out where your polling station is, and goes through the trouble of voting on your name, you tell them. So far virtually nobody has heard of this happening to them.

Beacsuse MLB has a conscience while also realizing what conditions much of it's talent comes from.
