GOP's plan: The voter suppression playbook. Documentary by PBS.org. 7/1/2024
https://www.pbs.org/video/rigged-the-voter-suppression-playbook-6ejoue/
Gotta love those GOP controlled states.
Narrated by Jeffrey Wright, Rigged chronicles how our right to vote is being undercut by a decade of dirty tricks – including the partisan use of gerrymandering and voter purges, and the gutting of the Voting Rights Act by the Supreme Court. The film captures real-time voter purges in North Carolina and voter intimidation in Texas.
