It is fucking WILD how they keep saying "if you make it so everyone can vote, we'll never elect a Republican again" OUT LOUD and yet a lot of people don't seem to catch on that the Republican party makes a mockery of democracyhttps://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/03/trump-2020-election-legal-battle-coronavirus-162152 …

i'm hardly the first to say this, but the fundamental problem is that dems are the majority, and increasingly so. after 2008 republicans explicitly faced a choice: win by expanding their coalition or by contracting the electorate. invariably, they choose the latter.

for some centrists, the both-sides ideology goes so deep that they think the definition of a fair election is one in which the democratic and republican *parties* have an equal-ish chance at winning. which, again, requires anti-democratic measures, given actual dem majorities.
