NYC Mayor: One of these things is not like the others...

1. Kicking people off the voter rolls

2. Limiting early voting days

3. Restricting the use of vote by mail

4. Two candidates encouraging their supporters to also vote for the other candidate in an election where voters can rank multiple candidates

(hint: all four have been described as "voter suppression" )
