No, the logic here is that these laws were implemented so that Democrats could get their laziest voters out to the polls. Oddly enough, it worked. The logic in fighting voter ID laws, much as it was in implementing Motor Voter where you don't even have to demonstrate that you are citizen in order to register to vote, is that you can get as many people to vote as possible without the hindrance of them being who they say they are. Of course you aren't going to demonstrate a lot of voter fraud in this way because it can't be demonstrated that the person isn't who they say they are. The way you find out is when some jackwagon brags about it on social media or to their friends. Therefore, they must be on the up-and-up. Democrats have created a false threshold for dismissing these concerns. There is no constitutional right to early voting. It is absurd. The ease of voting is so roundly embraced by the Democratic party for the same reason that immigration "reform" is-- it ultimately creates more Democratic voters and entrenches them in power.
Republicans fight this because it benefits the Democratic Party for sure, but also because it's such obvious shenanigan nonsense. It is an insult to the democratic process. Not the "noble goal" of having more people vote, but the way it is demagogued and abused to one party's benefit. Sure you get more people to vote if people are voting multiple times. Sure you get more people to vote if precinct rules are relaxed. Sure you get more people to vote if you have 2 weeks to go round up all the homeless bums in the city and give them a sandwich to vote for your guy. But there's nothing noble in that.
At some point, it isn't about what is good for somebody and bad for the other. It's about what business it is of the federal government to step in and interfere with a state conducting its election cycles. It has ZERO business telling a state that it can't restrict early voting. You have the right to vote on a fucking Tuesday. That's how it is spelled out. If somebody tells a black man he can't vote because he's black or he has to take a literacy test, that is jacking with his right and becomes a federal issue. If the state says, hey, you know what, you get to vote on Tuesday and nobody is going to jack with you when you vote, that isn't a federal issue.
As for voter ID, I have never bought into the notion that something you need to get food, smokes, food stamps, a prescription, a marriage license, a hotel room, an apartment, bank account, a loan, a rental car, Medicaid, an airplane flight, to drive, or basically anything else that one requires in order to live their life, is somehow The Great Suppressor. Gimme a break.
Minority voting was up because a black man ran for President. When some boring white man represents both parties, it will subside again.
