“The right to vote freely for the candidate of one’s choice is of the essence of a democratic society, and any restrictions on that right strike at the heart of representative government.”
Yet, the GOP, as a deliberate strategy, has successfully placed as many obstacles as possible to suppress voters’ ability to cast their ballots in person, especially in polling places populated by people of color.
Now, with a pandemic, we see Trump and disingenuous posters on this Board, use the fear mongering cover of “voter fraud” as ammunition to destroy and discount mail in votes, submitted properly by voters consistent with the instructions and protocols of their respective states’ election boards.
There is plenty of reason to believe that the GOP will do everything possible to strip voters of their most scared franchise.
