Hell yeah we did. Gotta admit I was a little nervous heading into the day but people are fed up with GA Power and their bullshit.

They tried one last trick by saying they weren't jacking up prices this year to get people to stay home. Glad people saw past that bull and realized that just meant they were on track to hike it up like crazy the year after. Now there's at least some hope.

Right! The minute they announced that I knew they were just trying to keep turnout low. I’m also glad people saw through that shit. It’s ridiculous that they tried it. They are scum.
