I think you’d have riots.

Would the "rioters" be wearing brown shirts, or sheets? Inquiring people want to know.

The sheet wearers are from the DNC. They formed the KKK to keep blacks from exercising their voting rights after Reconstruction.

Right. All the blue states have been trying to make it harder for blacks to vote while red states have been welcoming black voters into the booths.

Riots don't have to be physical. They could be simply not voting, voting for the opposition, or voting for write-ins. It could also be never voting for another incumbent!
