The current war over voting rights has two fronts. The first is the effort to expand voting rights to those who lost them as the result of violating the law. The second is the contraction or suppression of voting rights by means of more restrictive qualifications for the alleged purpose of preserving voter integrity. With respect to the former, the question is whether and to what degree the restoration of voting rights to ex-felons has successfully enhanced their political participation and engagement. With respect to the latter, the question whether there is a constitutional basis for protecting against those who would use the pretext of preventing fraud to suppress the voting participation of political rivals?
