They KNOW that they cannot win with an enfranchised populace. They cheated and lied and suppressed the vote in 2020 and it still was not enough, so they have to go further. Why try and broaden your coalition and appeal when you can just block certain communities from voting period? They are despicable. They are fascists and they will not stop.
Deplorables 2021 going further and farther than ever before in their attempts to overthrow democracy.
