See Steve's post below for some illumination of what a denialist (concerning this topic) is.

See TB's posts on the subject for more. Is that what you mean?

Or, to state the issue in simple language (though I've done it here before):

Voter ID laws and other laws that make it more complicated to vote than it used to be are a ploy by Republican run state legislatures to discourage more liberals from voting than it discourages conservatives from voting. This results in a net win for Republicans. I think it is downright immoral to do this in a democracy.

The denialists say that there are innocent reasons for passing all these laws. But when one of the guys in charge of the Republican party says something like : "Think about this, we cut Obama by five percent, which was big. A lot of people lost sight of that. He won, he beat McCain by 10 percent, he only beat Romney by five percent. I think that probably voter ID helped a bit in that."
or when one of the guys promoting such laws says "Voter ID, which is gonna allow Governor Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania, done,”,
then I think it's pretty clear what the reason for passing these laws really is.

Did I make it plain, this time? Or did I miss it again?
