5. Do they even consider the effects of voter suppression and intimidation?

Things like desanti's high profile arrests of black voters right before the election, for example.

Lack of drop boxes, confusing ballot rules, dis-allowed ballots due to technicalities - all these things are having the intended purpose. To blame it on "lack of enthusiasm" is just doing more of the same.
