Election themes in the wake of BLM protests. One of the running narratives of the DNC that I expect to be pushed heavily this election year is that the GOP is heavily engaged in VOTER SUPPRESSION-- a great talking point that supports their notion that the DNC is looking out for the little guy-- the disenfranchised POC, while the GOP is the "bad guy" who is looking to keep minority voters from participating. BS.
I had to look a little bit to see just exactly WHAT was out there. I found an NPR article from 2 years ago. Well-- sort of. LOL-- The "article" was nothing but a re-hash of a PURELY liberal perspective of the topic from a Mother Jones article and liberal author. The NPR article treats the OPINIONS and INTERPRETATIONS of that Mother Jones article as undisputed FACT. Classic NPR BS. You can see that article here:
Another article present the alternative point of view, albeit with some of its own bias. The difference is a wealth of studies and facts.
"...Among a variety of minority groups and political affiliations, no significant change in turnout occurred after voter ID laws went into effect. It should be noted, though, that Hispanic voter turnout actually increased in states with ID requirements, when compared to states without them. Clearly, the decrease erroneously claimed by critics has not happened..."
