Having ICE on the streets of Atlanta, Houston, Chicago, LA, etc. on Election Day should be sufficient interference.

But you do law. Your arguments will look so timely, so right and so prophetic this coming December.

Alpologia is thy name.

Why? I don't disagree with anything you said in your post. In fact, I noted in my original post that I was quite confident that the Administration (and other GOP electeds) will use the powers that they have to do things to tilt the playing field in their favor. And that they would do things that the Democrats would label as voter suppression. That's not a bold prediction on my part, BTW - it happens in almost every election.

I was pointing out to Steve that his specific scenario was far-fetched and would not happen. Because it is so transparent as to be self-defeating.

I was slightly confused by this point, though:

They don’t need to do this. Black and brown people are already afraid to leave their homes or send their children to school. And you don’t have to be undocumented to live in fear. Fortunately ICE has never deported a citizen or detained a legal resident, so citizens of color need not fear.

Were you being sarcastic, and I'm just missing it? If citizens of color need not fear ICE, then it seems unlikely that simply having ICE on the street would affect voter turnout.
