The voter suppression laws very well may screw up the national elections like they have the primaries enough to give Republicans the edge they wanted when the laws were passed Why do I suspect you lack the capacity to understand the implications here: Dem turnout and voter ID: The dirty little secret By Thomas Lifson The numbers tell a story, and you can draw the obvious conclusions. Because the mainstream media certainly won’t. Keep this statistic in mind the next time some progressive tries to claim voter fraud is not a serious problem. Political Wire quotes the HuffPo: Huffington Post: “Eight out of the 16 states that have held primaries or caucuses so far have implemented new voter ID or other restrictive voting laws since 2010. Democratic turnout has dropped 37 percent overall in those eight states, but just 13 percent in the states that didn’t enact new voter restrictions. To put it another way, Democratic voter turnout was 285 percent worse in states with new voter ID laws.” Left unsaid: despite the “burden” of obtaining voter ID, GOP turnout was up. You worship nasty little people and project their shortcomings on others. You represent a moral disease that may have destroyed America.
