Interview:
Democracy means get out the vote. But a new wave of state legislation across the country is making it harder to vote. Tightening up in many ways. Making voter registration more difficult. Reducing early voting days. Demanding voter ID. Proof of citizenship.
Backers say it's all to clean up American voting. Critics say that's a ruse. That voter fraud problems in this country are miniscule. That it's really a Republican drive to push away voters they don't want at the polls. A "war on voting."
This hour On Point: the wave of new restrictions on American voting.
