What does this political and power battle between more expansive vs. more restrictive voting laws mean for the quality of U.S. democracy?

To write your Analysis Paper #1, follow these three steps:
Compare Census data on how people voted in the 2020 Election to the Brennan Center’s report on the increase of restrictive laws proposed and passed in the U.S. after the election.
As you analyze the data, keep in mind the two questions below. In your paper, use and apply the book information, the micro-lectures through this week, and the Eric Liu video, etc. in answers. Your grade will be based on applying course concepts to your answers–see grading rubric.
Who’s power is most affected by more restrictive and more expansive voting laws and why? (who will be most affected by these laws in which states given what you learned in the Census data)
What does this political and power battle between more expansive vs. more restrictive voting laws mean for the quality of U.S. democracy?
3. Then write a two-page paper finding course concepts that come up from your analysis in Steps 1 & 2. The paper should be double-spaced, 12-point Time font, with 1″ margins. No cover page is necessary. Cite sources in the paper and provide a work cited list at the end (not part of the two pages!). You can use whatever citation style you know the best!
You can use the PEEL paragraph (Links to an external site.) construction to help with your writing and analysis.
The grade is based on your ability to identify and define course concepts and to explain how the examples in the article represent the course concepts. TIP: don’t just provide a summary of the data!
