      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Jonathan Chait

      Notice two things here. One is the continual defining-down of "voter suppression." The other is that it needs to be defined not by reference to what laws actually do, but to intent, which is always a more ambiguous, less objectively falsifiable terrain.https://twitter.com/jonathanchait/status/1379069763297632268 …

      Dan McLaughlin added,

      Jonathan ChaitVerified account @jonathanchait
      This is true, as long as you define vote suppression to exclude "Republican laws designed to discourage voting by Democratic constituencies by making voting more of a hassle." https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1379063522731159553 …

      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Philip Bump

      Again, the effort to shift to motive because they are losing the argument on what is actually in the lawhttps://twitter.com/pbump/status/1379075384453529607 …

      It's impossible to assess Georgia's voting-law changes without acknowledging the obvious motivation for passing them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/04/05/question-about-georgias-election-law-changes-that-has-only-one-answer-why/ …

          Again, the effort to suppress votes because they can’t win elections by convincing majorities to support their party’s policies.

          Super weird that the can't just look at what the law says and see what it will do. I thought that was the purpose of codifying it into law!

          they cut back drastically on drop boxes, and moved them indoors (people can't drop their ballots off after work hours), banned mobile voting centers. SOS is now a none voting member of Election board, GOP Legislature can suspend county election officials.

          When Philip Bump takes a dump, he does it for the wrong reasons.
