Disabled Voters Were Evenly Split in 2016. Now the GOP Is Pushing Them Away
- Lawmakers seek to curb early, mail-in and curbside voting
- Measures spark backlash among voters with disabilities
Republican efforts to restrict voting have sparked a backlash among people with disabilities, hurting the party’s appeal to a key group of swing voters.
Disability rights advocates say new laws to reduce early in-person voting, restrict vote-by-mail and ban curbside voting — in response to Donald Trump’s baseless claims of widespread fraud — have angered voters with disabilities.
