Voting laws

This is from a recent article on CNN concerning voting laws. So, just how bad — or good — are these laws? The political reaction to these laws seems to have overshadowed what’s actually in them. Yes, Republicans’ case for rampant voter fraud is nonexistent. But Democrats’ case that any current voting restrictions amount to the type of voter suppression that existed before the Civil Rights movement is also far from accurate. Furthermore, the evidence shows that restrictive (or permissive) voting laws matter less to the outcome than both parties would like to think.
