Damn knight_shadow keeps reading my mind.

Generally speaking, the Democrats and Republicans only push voting requirements, including busing disenfranchised people, when it is an election that is considered especially important. That is part of what happened when Obama was running for office and Democrats were pushing people, many of whom had rarely or never voted, to vote. So, now the Republicans want the White House back and want to make sure those random "people in the 'hood" do not make their way to the poll stations like they did to help (they weren't the main voters for Obama but it helped) get Obama elected.

If voter requirements and voter fraud are a concern, keep it a concern. Do not make it a concern when it is convenient for a political front.
