Georgia state Sen. Vincent Fort targets gun raffle for voters SMYRNA, Ga., Oct. 24 (UPI) -- The owner of a Georgia store has raised the ire of a state senator by offering guns as prizes for a raffle open to voters. State Sen. Vincent Fort, D-Atlanta, filed a complaint Tuesday with the Georgia Secretary of State against Jay Wallace, owner of Adventure Outdoors in Smyrna, which is offering a promotion to enter customers in a raffle to win a Browning rifle or a Glock handgun if they vote in November, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Wednesday. "It's just getting people involved in the process," Wallace said. I don't understand what his problem is. Is he afraid somebody's going to get involved in our political system? Fort said the promotion runs afoul of a state law banning people and businesses from offering money or gifts in exchange for voting or registering to cote. "I sent a letter to the secretary of state this morning, asking him to look into it and put a stop to the raffle," Fort said. These billboards are prominently positioned all over the metro area, and I'm surprised the secretary of state didn't intervene earlier.
