“It’s gonna scare the white right out of the white-haired old men,” Roberts opined.
Lee agreed and said that the GOP’s efforts to institute voter identification laws or restrict voting times to Election Day resulted in the increased enthusiasm of black voters. “Going back to those fringe groups that control so much of the momentum behind the GOP, it’s quite frankly scary for folks,” Lee asserted. “You see effigies. You see some of the t-shirts. You see the attacks on President Obama, in proxy, an attack on African-Americans.”
