I don't feel like what happened in the 1960s is the most salient thing to consider when you take into account that the effort to suppress the vote has been overwhelmingly Republican in the past few decades and has picked up with the Supreme Court striking down parts of the Voting Rights Acts.

never said it was the "most salient thing to consider." It's an interesting historical anecdote.
