Suppressed and Sabotaged: The Fight To Vote \;(2022) \;by Robert Greenwald (Director of \;O utfoxed\, Walmart: The High Cost of Low Price\, and Maki ng A Killing: Guns\, Greed\, and the NRA) is a powerful documentary a bout the growing threat of voter suppression and election sabotage to our 2022 miderm elections. In 2021\, 19 states passed 34 new voter laws follow ing the Big Lie of the 2020 election. The film focuses on this recent wave of voter suppression and subversion laws being enacted in states\, and ho w the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race between Stacey Abrams and Brian Kemp provides a blueprint for today&rsquo\;s voter suppression laws across the country.
\nSuppressed and Sabotaged: The Fight To Vote now includes perspectives from voters in Arizona\, Florida\, Texas\, and Geor gia that highlight how these new laws will affect their constitutional rig ht to vote. Suppression tactics covered in the film include registration h urdles\, polling place closures\, voter purges\, missing absentee ballots\ , extreme wait times at polling locations\, exact match disqualifications\ , new vote by mail limitations\, changes to ballot collection and drop off \, and more. Voter suppression laws disproportionately affect American Stu dents\, Senior Citizens\, Black\, Indigenous\, Latinx\, and People of Colo r from casting their ballots. Suppressed and Sabotaged \;is a call to action against the calculated\, unconstitutional\, and racist att acks intended to suppress the right to vote in America.
