We hit 1,169 verified signatures at 11:45 PM last night.


From 833 at 2:08 PM on Sept 28 to 1,169 — that's +336 in 6 days because you shared it. Thank you.


But I'm being straight with you: we're in a flatline. 


6:33 PM: 1,168
7:31 PM: 1,169 (+1 in 58 minutes)
11:45 PM: 1,169 (+0 in 4 hours)


Shares are stuck at 683. Our promo that turned $178 from 18 promoters into 299 signatures and 2,151 views has burned out.


We need 331 more to hit 1,500 and get this in front of the Georgia General Assembly.


This petition is to amend Georgia's constitution to abolish the open field doctrine — the rule that lets law enforcement trespass and search your private land, your woods, your farm, without a warrant, without probable cause, and without you ever knowing. Private land should require a warrant. Period.


If you signed for that reason, please do ONE thing right now:


1. SHARE on Facebook — 63% of our signatures came from Facebook. My data shows 1 share = ∼5 signatures.


2. If you can, chip in $3 or 5$ to Promote — $0.59 per signature so far. Even $3 puts us in front of 40 more Georgians.


331 to go.
