Chuck Schumer on Jim Crow 2.0
Salena Zito got it right by writing "Kemp argued that the wave of what he called false hysteria created real economic fallout across the state, hitting small businesses especially hard. He noted that many of the vendors who lost opportunities tied to the relocated MLB All-Star Game were local entrepreneurs, including many minorities, who had hoped to recover from a year of pandemic-related losses by selling food, merchandise, and other goods during the event. "They overplayed their hand," Kemp told me, adding that the corporations didn’t even know what was in the bill." Here's the crushing blow:
"The bill that we passed made it easy to vote and hard to cheat," he said. "It dealt with the mechanical issues that we saw in the 2020 election with things like drop boxes and confusion because of all kinds of different groups mailing out absentee ballot applications."The problems that appeared in 2020 disappeared in 2022. Minority turnout increased from 2020 to 2022, shattering the myth that Democrats are peddling. Sen. Schumer making ass of himself:In short, the bill addressed many of the problems the state encountered with pandemic-era voting changes. But Democrats branded it "voter suppression," much like the argument Schumer is advancing now, and never reconsidered. In the process, they brought corporate America and MLB along with them.
A Pew Research Center survey done last year found that a whopping 83% of American adults support requiring some form of government-issued photo ID to vote, including 71% of Democrats and 95% of Republicans. Only 16% of Americans oppose it.
