>Donald Trump’s campaign has organized a strategy to try to depress voter turnout for Hillary Clinton, according to a Bloomberg Businessweek story published Thursday.
>“We have three major voter suppression operations under way,” a senior campaign official said, according to the report, which provides an inside look into the Trump campaign’s operation, including quotes from a rare interview with CEO Steve Bannon.
>The voter suppression effort is meant to target three groups: young women, black voters and white liberals such as those who backed Sen. Bernie Sanders during the Democratic primary, the report said.
>There are voter suppression tactics that are illegal -- those that involve voter intimidation. But what the Trump operation described is more along the lines of discouraging voters from turning out with messaging through media buys and events.
>As for empirical data that support the racist impact of voter suppresion laws, ThinkProgress.org cited unnamed studies, one which caculated a drop in Democratic turnout by estimated 8.8 percentage points in general elections” compared to a 3.6 percentage drop in Republicans turnout. More conservative studies estimate that voter ID laws can add more than a full percentage point to the GOP’s margin over Democrats
This shit is sickening. I may not agree with Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Socialists, etc. but I would NEVER think it's okay to disenfranchise or try to suppress their voices. That's some Soviet Union/DPRK shit. You throw your hat in the ring and we battle it out on the democratic stage, like we're actually members of the free world. My side wins, great. Your side wins, fuck you but congrats, I'll nurse my wounds and come back for round 2...don't fuck my nation up in the meantime.

What I find even more interesting is that the recent threads on Sup Forums with the hashtags #EnlistforHer and #NoEqualityNoVote syncs up perfectly with these voter suppression methods. I know Russians pay people to troll here and other sites but is this the Ruskies or Trump's campaign machine?

>He's fine with dazed and confused transexuals walking the nuclear wastelands of a once great USA as long as 51% of the people vote for it.
Some people are willing to die for their country.
You're a spineless cuck for not doing whatever it takes to make your country great again.

>Trump’s decision to bring women who’ve accused former President Bill Clinton of sexual assault into the spotlight, for example, was the campaign’s effort to dissuade young women from supporting Hillary Clinton, the report said.
Sherlock fucking Holmes over here
What is this retarded article

Those faggots and trannies are U.S. citizens and as a veteran I did sign up to die protecting THAT right. Whether any of the conflicts of the last 20 years were for that cause is debatable, but the reason to serve, defend, and die for those rights is the same as it was since the first enlistment/commission in this country.
So when assholes like you DARE to dissuade, disenfranchise, or suppress ANYONE"s vote to right because they disagree with you, I can only strongly suggest you find the nearest building and practice your high dive.

this isn't "voter suppression," fuck off
David King
You guys do fraud and bus people for your side, we do supression (not believing it just yet). Fair enough.
Anthony Edwards
It's shitposters from here, put away the tin foil hat. Also voter suppression is part of every campaign, you want to discourage your opponents supporters from voting and encourge your own. There's nothing shady about that.
Josiah Hall
If people can be convinced to not vote then they probably only wanted to vote due to liberal propaganda. Nothing wrong with doing the opposite. I support this tactic and will help to further disenfranchise these idiots. Stay mad! :^)

You are just calling normal campaigning voter suppression and pretending to be offended. Fuck off.
Robert Reed

Sebastian Phillips
>Trump making a case against Hillary Clinton to key voting blocks is voter suppression because it discourages them from voting for her.
