Voter Suppression

A devious plot in which Republicans try to prevent those who are likely to support the Democratic

party from voting. Usual targets are African Americans, the poor, and the elderly.

Voter Suppression in Alabama works like this; first they require a state issued ID to vote, then they close all the drivers license stations in the 31 counties that have a black majority.

Voter Suppression

A strategy in which Republicans are trying to prevent people who might oppose them from voting, typically the poor, elderly and minorities. Usually they will claim they are just trying to stop voter fraud even though there is no evidence that that has been a problem

In Texas as part of their Voter Suppression program a concealled carry permit can be used as an ID to vote, but a student ID from one of their state colleges does not count, it's pretty obvious who they're trying to stop from voting.

Voter Self-suppression

The failure-to-vote position created by unrelenting exposure to largely unsubstantiated, incorrect election fraud accusations and fever dream, conspiracy theorist lunacy.

I'm a proud 'Merican and I believe that free and fair elections are the foundation of our Republic and the Democratic experiment itself. If our election system is undermined or found corrupt the only logical remedy is voter self-suppression; non-participation as an act of passive defiance will help restore confidence!
(and make victory for non-delusional voters an almost absolute)
