I appreciate brownshoe’s comments. In that same vein, making ‘mail in’ voting more secure seems like the next logical step. But I don’t think that’s on the table.
This topic reminds me of a moment I had with my father 30+ yrs ago, where he essentially explained to me that we, as what I assumed was a “middle class” family were not far removed from what I had somehow associated with the “poor”. He’s was a deeply malprogramed republican at this point, so it’s even more poignant upon reflection. Bottom line, the vast majority of the population is on the same side, the ‘have nots’. I can’t imagine anyone here is really in a position to significantly benefit from the voter oppression of others.
