I Pit the ID-demanding GOP vote-suppressors (Part 1)

[SlackerInc]

I found this very interesting, in an NPR story about the laws which have been struck down:

MCEVERS: So if these laws did specifically want to stop voter fraud, what would that look like in your opinion?

HASEN: Well, if you really wanted to get rid of the most prevalent form of voter fraud, you would not allow people to vote by absentee ballot, to vote by mail unless they had some kind of excuse, like they were out of the country or disabled.

I have been arguing for years that vote-by-mail is terrible. It’s become very prevalent in the Pacific Northwest, and misguided progressives periodically advocate for expanding it. So glad to see some evidence for why that’s such a bad idea.
