Give me a break, 'the intent is the same'. Trying to disenfranchise people is wrong and should be outside the bounds of political activity, it's not 'the same'

Give me a break, 'the intent is the same'. Trying to disenfranchise people is wrong and should be outside the bounds of political activity, it's not 'the same' as trying to get your people to vote. If they were taking up weapons and shooting up precincts likely to vote for the other guy, would 'the intent be the same'? I mean, they're just trying to win the election.
