AUGUSTA, Ga. — About two dozen protesters turned out near Augusta National on Saturday, objecting to Georgia’s new voting law during the third round of the Masters.

The group held signs that said “Let Us Vote” and “Protect Georgia Voting Rights,” drawing both jeers and cheers from motorists on busy Washington Road.

One man passing by shouted an insult against Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, who signed voter restrictions into law last month. But another yelled at protesters, “C’mon, you can vote! Get out of here!”
