Voter Suppression Tricks

The last card the desperate Dem strategists can play is the overconfident GOP voter suppression card. By this I mean making a GOP sweep so likely in pre-election news and op/ed pieces that marginal GOP voters become overconfident of a win, and some drop off without actually voting. Notice all the big Left media outlets trumpeting the likelihood of a GOP triumph this week/this morning? They are trying to get the less motivated GOP voters to think their vote isn't as crucial - so maybe they won't vote after all. Don't be fooled.

Well I heard on the Weather Channel this morning that Reps turn out at about a 25% higher rate to vote when it is raining than the Dems. Suppose to be rain from Texas up thru the Midwest into Ill. today.
Maybe things balance out. Either way, going to be a long day and a longer night.

I feel good about how the day is gonna turn out. I tuned up the chopper and changed the oil last night. It's hittin' on the second kick. Good omen.

Only takes an incredibly small handful of voters not voting in each precinct to throw a statewide election into the other column.

so 2 years ago the media was skewing the polls for Dems to suppress voter turnout and this year they're doing it for the Reps to suppress voter turnout.

I go to all the triple secret convention of all the libs, msm and hollywood. I get the daily emails. I get texts.
I guess with all the work of running all the universities, schools, tv stations, hollywood, that one slipped past me.

They intimidated people so much that a grand total of zero people eligible to vote at that precinct claimed they were intimidated.
Now that's some voter intimidation there!

And if white guys with bats were outside the polls the national guard and Eric Holder would be fast-roping into that area to slap civil rights violations on the entire town.

Does every single right wing argument ever made rest on hypotheticals that haven't actually happened? Or just the ones on TD.com?

The footage showed the man standing outside the building, and occasionally holding the door open for voters to enter.

Like how no people have been disenfranchised by voter ID laws?
