Republicans, acknowledging that they can't win elections based on their candidates and policies, are now targeting voting itself as a last ditch effort to stay in power or obtain power. Democrats have a growing power base of educated young people and college students who embrace ideas of freedom, not repression. Republicans are stuck with mostly small town, rural and lesser educated voters who do not have the intelligence to sift through the constant far right wing propaganda that they are exposed to.
The really interesting point that Republicans espouse in their efforts to limit voting is "to build confidence in elections." Well, there has always been confidence in elections felt by Democrats. It was Donald Trump and his far right wing allies who screeched "election fraud" because they can't win elections fair and square. They have not been able to offer any credible proof of "voter fraud," yet that matters not to their constituencies. All that matters is keeping their voters locked in a rubber room of "voter fraud" that they have absolutely no evidence even exists.
