Wowzer. Detestable shitstains.
Face it, our elections are decided by stupid people. Far too many American voters are absolutely clueless about the political issues facing the country, or of the consequences of the votes they cast.
While there are plenty of idiots casting ballots from every political persuasion, the Democrat Party absolutely depends on stupid people voting the straight Democrat ticket in order to keep getting Democratic candidates elected to political office, many of whom arent qualified to lick stamps much less represent us in Congress.

So do we continue to strive to make it possible for more people to vote, including illegal aliens and dead Democrats? Do we flood the electorate with more and more stupid people who havent a clue what theyre voting for, or what their vote actually does?
Call it suppressing the vote if you want, but making it easier for stupid people to vote doesnt seem to be a very logical thing to do when our country is faced with serious challenges. A time when we need the very best to straighten things out. Not people elected simply because they have a D or an R next to their name.
