The reason is simple - when fraud is taking place, voters are discouraged and the vote of honest folks is suppressed.
Everyone is concerned about the “chilling effect” requiring ID supposedly causes. Nobody considers the chilling effect fraud has on honest folks.
Are you more or less likely to engage in a game of chance if you know it’s rigged? Are you more or less likely to watch a sporting event if you know it is rigged? (WWE fans are exempt from this question) Are you more or less likely to vote if you know the guy behind you has already voted twice? AND if you know the authorities don’t care...you are even less likely to vote, because you feel impotent.
Suppose you knew the guy behind you was voting for the third time, and mentioned it to the poll officials and they said, “yeah, we know, but we don’t want to cause a fuss”. I know I would walk out in protest.
How many in the black community know about the fraud taking place? Probably most of them, and it keeps the honest ones at home.
