President Biden, Vice President Harris, and their left-wing activist allies claim that voter suppression is rampant in the United States. In fact, the opposite is happening.

DNC surrogates like to cry “voter suppression” wherever laws strengthen election security. Joe Biden infamously called Georgia's election integrity package, which introduced reforms such as voter identification for absentee ballots and monitored drop boxes, “21st century Jim Crow.”

Here are some examples of what the left calls “the new Jim Crow.”

• Citizenship verification laws in countries with tens of millions of non-citizens living permanently within their borders.
• Voter Photo ID Act. Each state makes eligible identification documents free and widely available to all citizens.
• A law that prohibits third parties from filling out and mailing ballots to citizens, noncitizens, nonresidents, deceased persons, and even citizens. Cat and dog;
• Require applicants to personally sign voter registration forms and sign and date absentee ballots, just as people sign and date other government documents. law.

Jim Crow 1.0 included grave injustices such as racially targeted violence and intimidation, and polls of people who failed absurd tasks such as guessing the number of bubbles in a bar Never forget that there are illegal “literacy tests” that will keep you away from it. of soap.

Comparing the integrity of today's elections to the horrors of the past is not apples to oranges. That's outrageous.

Beyond the awful analogy, the facts do not support the left's voter suppression narrative. First, while voter turnout fluctuates from election to election, it has steadily increased over the past two decades. And in states like Georgia, ground zero for oppression hoaxers, there are voters of all types. report Voting is easy and not a hassle at all.

Recent case law supports these conclusions. Courts in Florida, Georgia, and Ohio are considering drop box regulations, ballot collection rules, voter photo ID requirements, and more, scrutinizing suppressed votes. But nothing was found.

So what's actually going on here? Well, that's money for one. The democracy-industrial complex is big business. We support large nonprofit organizations. A law firm with multi-million dollar revenues. And even the whole station, Major domestic media.One of the Democratic Party insiders recently confirmed Many of these legal acts that claim to protect voting rights are nothing more than “business strategies” designed to line the lawyers' pockets.

Another thing that's happening is politics. The left long ago abandoned strategies that relied on getting people to vote for party ideas. It takes a lot of effort. It is much easier and more reliable to rely on activists and state bureaucrats to secure political power. That's why the left wants third parties and the state to register voters. They want a third party or the state to fill out their voting application. They want a third party or state to collect and submit your ballot on your behalf. For leftists, elections are not considered a solemn event, but rather a relationship between the people and those who want to lead them. They aim to get people to sign on the dotted line by any means necessary.

In older times, those who campaigned against voter suppression aimed to enfranchise citizens who were truly sidelined. But in an era of unprecedented suffrage, new campaigners are doing little to identify who is being excluded from the electoral process. Of course, that didn't stop them, because ending voter suppression isn't the point. The important thing is to attract votes from people who have never cared about them and make a dollar or two in the process.
