Do I understand this correctly, African Americans need special help to fulfil voting criteria because they are somehow unable to do paperwork? I'll gladly be educated why I am being unfair, but to me the entire article reeks of bs. The language alone "There aren't enough white guys to elect Trump! Therefore it was stolen!", that just sounds pathetic, patronizing and undemocratic. Dems didn't go vote in droves because Hillary was a shit candidate, but the fact that you needed ID to vote is to blame?
No, voting criteria were changed in order for it to make it harder for minorities and other groups who overwhemingly favour Democrat voters to avail of their legal right to vote. Did you not notice the bit about Crosscheck which is used by republitraitor state governments to "ferret" out double registered voters. A system which will cause all people called "Mohammed Mohammed", or "James Brown" to be considered the same person and a double registered voter without performing any other check available to such systems such as checking SSI numbers, birth dates, middle names or anything else you could think over, and which has shown to overwhelmingly scrub minorities from the list.
Alex this is voter disenfranchisement, plain and simple, and only one tiny step from having brown shirts standing at every polling booth looking at who you're voting for.
