Democrats and minority groups have long contended that the GOP’s efforts on things like Voter ID and early voting are aimed at suppressing the minority vote. They note that minority voters are more likely to not have photo ID and that they use in-person early voting at a higher rate than white voters (white voters are more likely to vote absentee when they vote early).
