Dems Employ Cynical Voter Suppression to Protect Vulnerable Senate Democrat

A new Democratic ad in North Dakota seeks to discourage hunters and outdoorsmen, a Republican-leaning constituency, from showing up on Election Day.

Per Fox News:
 

The North Dakota Democratic Party is discouraging hunters from voting in the upcoming election, claiming they could lose their out-of-state hunting licenses if they do so.

“Attention hunters: If you vote in North Dakota, you may forfeit hunting licenses you have in other states. If you want to keep your out-of-state hunting licenses, you may not want to vote in North Dakota,” the ad says, linking to a similar warning on the North Dakota Democratic-NPL website.

“By voting in North Dakota, you could forfeit your hunting licenses. You MUST be a resident of North Dakota to vote here. And if you are a resident of North Dakota, you may lose hunting licenses you have in other states,” the website said.

The ad is linked to the Hunter Alert Facebook page which appears to have been created earlier this week. Facebook notes it was paid for by the North Dakota Democratic-NPL.

In response, the North Dakota ​Game and Fish Department denounced the state Democratic Party’s cynical tactic.
