The first priority for every Democrat elected at every level must be an aggressive expansion of voting rights.
The Republican approach to elections is un-American, immoral, often unconstitutional, and devastatingly effective.
A theme of this book is that Democrats don’t have to emulate the Republicans to win, but on this issue, we need to take a page out of their book and flip the script. The first priority for every Democrat elected at every level must be an aggressive expansion of voting rights. It starts with repealing the voter ID laws that Republicans passed to explicitly reduce voting by people of color and college students, but we don’t stop there. Their strategy is voter suppression; ours needs to be voter expansion.
