The reason you think this is because white people make the laws.
Take NC for instance. It’s voting restrictions were struck down by a federal court because, according to the court they ...you know what?
Read it for yourself.

A WHOLE different court said this about a Texas law:
Do you even know why the Republican Party is even able to file these lawsuits claiming they weren’t allowed to monitor the polls?
Well, in 1982 the GOP sent armed poll watchers into black and brown neighborhoods to harass voters

They even gave them official-looking armbands that said “Ballot Security Task Force”
The party had to sign a consent decree agreeing not to poll watch. A Trump appointee lifted it this year

Or how about that time Jesse helms sent 25000 postcards to black people telling them they might be arrested if they vote?

Oh, by the way, he’s the same guy who wrote the NC law that targeted black voters with “surgical precision”
Or how about Thomas Hoefler? For years GOP legislatures hired him to gerrymander voting districts.
After he died, his hard drive revealed that Lawmakers had been feeding him data to ensure that his maps only considered one factor:

Doesn’t it look like all the states the GOP won?
It’s not.
It’s states that don’t allow felons to vote —some even after they’ve completed their sentences and every other requirement

The citizens of Florida REMOVED IT FROM THE CONSTITUTION and the GOP still found a way to stop felons from voting
So, to equate this Witt Trumps fever dream of negro saboteurs is not just disingenuous, but it’s provably false...
Of course, there’s another possibility.
