Georgia GOP still steamed a year after losing All-Star game over voting rights

On Monday, U.S. Reps. Buddy Carter and Barry Loudermilk sent a letter to baseball commissioner Rob Manfred asking how the league will “redress the harm” caused to metro Atlanta with the decision. Carter called it “liberal hypocrisy,” while Loudermilk demanded an apology.

They’re both following the lead of House Speaker David Ralston, who penned a letter last week that lamented how Manfred “unjustly deprived” Georgia of a premier event and demanded that the “mistake be corrected.”

“As such, I call on you to award a future MLB All-Star Game to be played at Truist Park in the coming years,” Ralston wrote. “The sooner this announcement is made, the quicker we can all put this unfortunate incident behind us.”
