The story of American democracy has been the expansion of voting rights to
more and more citizens. Yet now, conservatives linked to the Republican
Party are systematically seeking to constrict the vote.
.
We cant let them get away with this.
.
In the early republic, voting was often reserved for white male
landowners. Over time, the vote was extended to working people, to women,
to those 18 and older. The passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act was one
of the transformative victories of the civil rights movement. Progressive
movements have pushed reforms to make voting easier same-day voter
registration, extended voting days and hours, voting by mail.
.
Now, however, across the country, we see a systematic effort to suppress
the vote.
.
.
Voter Suppression Tactics Discussed in This Article Include:
.
Voter ID laws
Voter purges
Intimidating voter-registration groups
Eliminating same-day registration; curtailing early voting
Targeted tricks: Negative ads disgust and discourage voters. Now, with
unaccountable SuperPACs that dont have to identify their donors, it will
get uglier. Well witness phone calls designed to confuse African Americans
about when Election Day occurs or direct mail warning Hispanics that
failure to carry proof of citizenship will lead to arrest.
