It would be if everyone entitled to could easily vote

Well, that is like saying "in a perfect world....". Today Americans do not live in a democracy where everyone entitled to could easily vote. And there are MANY reasons for that, not just one type of obstruction.

No. It's like saying "cumulative return on investment". If you pass laws that enable more people to vote, and those voters vote for you, then you win more elections and can pass more new laws that allow more people to vote.
