"This conservative war on voting has taken on a number of different forms, Jim Crow being just the most obvious example, but it has always been based on one simple idea: conservatives lose elections when more people vote, and win elections when fewer people vote. As American Legislative Exchange Council founder and Reagan advisor Paul Weyrich put it back in 1980, "our leverage in the elections… goes up as the voting populace goes down." This has been the thinking behind every conservative voter suppression effort in history. But conservatives are smart. They've always been careful to disguise their war against voting in language that makes it sound acceptable, at least to the minimally informed. But every once in a while the mask slips, and conservatives tell the truth about their voter suppression accomplishments. Well, the mask slipped last night in Wisconsin."
