Democrats Crushed in Election? Voter “Suppression” of Course

A crushing defeat for Democrats in Colorado leads to charges of voter suppression.  Actually, voter suppression is the story of politics.  One attempts to get one’s own voters to vote, while hoping that fewer of one’s opponents vote.  For example, in the 2012 election, OFA sought to discourage white middle class voters from participating in the election by exercising free speech rights with content designed to discourage participation.  That’s perfectly legal, and perfectly normal.

Perhaps when Democrats charge voter suppression after the crushing defeat in Colorado, they are referring to the same phenomena.

Keep in mind that the legislators defeated were not only adverse to the Second Amendment but also were key in passing Colorado’s universal vote by mail law.  The message from the election? Don’t interfere with the Bill of Rights and don’t support electoral systems which invite voter fraud on a massive scale.
