In a free and fair election, there are just enough white people who reject their white supremacist arguments. When those white people can be linked up with the emerging majority of nonwhite people in this steadily browning country, conservatives lose. And so, conservatives do not put it up for a vote. They do not allow a free and fair election on their actual platform. They use the judiciary, the least transparent and least responsive branch of government, to push through their antebellum values, and rely on ignorance to mask their true agenda.
