And the Republicans response will be to make it more difficult for college students to vote in their college towns instead of being less radical
yeah, there's literally a quote from a Republican in the article complaining that it's too easy for college students to vote
They may attempt that route but I suspect it would have a negative impact for the GOP. I feel it would stir up a hornets nest and increase the student vote.
They’ve been talking about raising the age to vote for some time now for this exact reason
Raise the age to drive. Lower the age to drink. Keep the age to go into the military and fire a fucking rifle the same.
