A lawsuit when 23 states were already doing it? GOP's voter rolls are going to grow too.
The GOP of late has been doing everything in their power to make it tougher to vote. They've gone through in multiple states and purged voter registrations which many people didn't find out about until they actually went to vote and found out they were no longer registered.
GOP’s voter rolls are going to grow too.
The GOP is trying to bank on the fact that their voters tend to be far more motivated to vote. The DNC has more actual supporters than the GOP and if there was 100% voter turnout the GOP would never win another election, but since we only get something like 40% voter turnout, and nearly all Republican voters show up to the polls every time, that lets the GOP keep scoring election wins. They know that if they make it more difficult to register to vote, the vast majority of their supporters will go through the extra effort, while a significant chunk of Democrat voters will be discouraged by the extra hoops to jump through and will give up before actually getting registered or voting.
But often, voter registration ends up disenfranchising marginalized people.
