A large scale voter manipulation tactic used in modern Democratic societies when the political situation is highly polarized in terms of broad ideology i.e. left vs right spectrum. It is used by political parties on the left end of the spectrum (primarily in western nations) in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France etc. Once a sufficient amount of new dedicated voters have been imported (via NGO boats or intentionally unprotected borders), new laws are enacted that prevent or hinder the constituency of the rival political party from engaging in any kind of action or initiatives to stop it or hinder the “Import Voter Strategy” i.e. enacting hate speech laws or other methods that yet have no specific name. The method is particularly effective when combined with intersectional politics.
The staunchly pro-migration leftists in the E.U. and their NGOs are using Import Voter Strategy by importing voters from Africa and the Middle East to dilute native European voting paradigms in order ensure their political ambitions are not hindered by the Democratic process of voting.

People who have neither partisan nor ideological conviction at any detectible level. Most often found in the suburbs, these voters are often swayed by emotional appeals rather than philosophical, moral, or logical arguments. As such, these voters are emotionally torn pulled the two parties – they want to vote Republican as they live what they believe to be the capitalist dream of a comfortable, two-income, and sterile life in the ‘burbs (with the perception of being inoculated from those sticky urban social issues), at the same time they want to vote Democrat to assuage their guilt of their own mindless and unconscious lifestyle (such as talking racial tolerance but living in a racially homogeneous community, expressing horror at things like outsourcing jobs while drawing a paycheck from a company that does it every day, driving gas-guzzling SUVs while claiming their concern for the environment, and outwardly claiming support for their neighborhood public school systems while sending their own kids to private school). Often claiming to be independent, they criticize partisans on both sides for being closed-minded while believing there is nobility in their own indecision.
