The Fair Fight to Dismantle Voter Suppression: Recognizing Electoral Injustice Through Lived Experiences

Isidore Kafui Dorpenyo George Mason University

Abstract

Using narrative inquiry to analyze the Fair Fight website, this article illuminates how localized lived experience becomes an important tool to fight electoral injustice. The author provides an assemblage of narratives from disenfranchised voters to argue that although election technologies and processes (e.g., address systems, voter registration, absentee or mail-in ballots, voter queues), poll workers, and officials may seem neutral or apolitical, they can potentially be tools of disenfranchisement.
