We all know what this is, it’s voter suppression

Of course that is the whole idea, but it’s a two-edged sword. If the Trump supporters see Hillary ahead in the polls it will merely motivate them more to work harder and to make sure they vote. A good percentage of Hillary supporters will see her way ahead, and being a basically lazy EBT demographic, will sit back, toke another joint, snort a line, drink a beer and assume it’s in the bag so why make any effort to shut off American Idol and get to the polls. We’re talking vastly differing demographics here.
Even if Trump were way ahead in the polls, it would be very wise of him to make every effort to appear to be barely behind Hillary. This would give his people motivation to keep pushing and not sit on their laurels. Let Hillary’s people do that.
