"There's a fundamental difference between Democrats and Republicans," Kavanagh said. "Democrats value as many people as possible voting, and they're willing to risk fraud. Republicans are more concerned about fraud, so we don't mind putting security measures in that won't let everybody vote -- but everybody shouldn't be voting."
"Not everybody wants to vote, and if somebody is uninterested in voting, that probably means that they're totally uninformed on the issues," Kavanagh said. "Quantity is important, but we have to look at the quality of votes, as well."
He is arguing for Jim Crow laws. Essentially that anyone who doesn't vote "right" should not be allowed to vote. He is not saying that the voters most affected by these voter suppression laws are low income and minority voters. So he is willing to infringe on the rights of minorities and poor people because they don't vote for conservative values. That's just sickening.
