Episode 158: Is Voter Suppression Still Happening?

  •  Scenario 1: Ivan walked down to his local polling place, where he was promptly greeted by a group called Morally Conscious Voters United. They asked if Ivan had his voter's registration card. He did not and was turned away. Is this a form of Voter suppression?
  • Scenario 2: Marion and Egon think they can prevent voting fraud in their district. They plan to hire Navy SEALs as poll watchers, who can challenge any voter to prove their legitimacy. Is this a good idea or just voter suppression? 

  • Scenario 3: Waylon lives Philadelphia, where black people make up 41 percent of the population. A  lawyer who has advised the National Republican Senatorial Committee said this is likely the epicenter of voter fraud and efforts need to be made to remove invalid voters. Is this unsubstantiated claim another case of voter suppression?
