The same year that Bush's team clearly did voter surpression in Florida, so did Al Gore. Before people in the panhandle, which overwhelmingly leans Republican, Al Gore had falsely claimed victory, which CNN had reported. How many people didn't go out and vote because of that? That shit happens every year by both sides. You'd have to be naive in the extreme to think only one side does it. Hillary Clinton did it to Bernie Sanders voters by pretending that the election wasn't that close constantly on the news. I know Republicans who believe only Democrats do it. In fact there was a whole book written about Democrats and voter suppression tactics. The fact that you only know the Republican side of things is kind of telling.
That's not what I'm talking about anyway.
Are you seriously equating false representations about polls with purging people from voter roles, physically impending voters, shutting polls early, and voter ID laws? Seriously?
Yes I agree that both sides do the former both out of malice and out of optimism; but that is nothing like actually preventing voting or making voting physically difficult, expensive, or time consuming. They aren't the same thing at all.
You mean, something like this?
