Valdosta State University Professor: Voter Suppression Laws May Not Change Election Outcomes – For Now

An associate professor of political science at Valdosta State University says voting should be easy, but some states are trying to make it hard through voter suppression laws.

“What you are seeing is a long-term pattern of Republicans taking steps to tilt elections in their favor,” said Dr. Bernard Tamas on Thursday’s edition of “Closer Look.”

Tamas told show host Rose Scott that there are two types of voting laws: laws that ban voters completely and laws that increase the cost of voting by making it more difficult to vote.
