Jim Cramer, host of CNBC's "Mad Money," revealed Tuesday that the Republican Party's voter suppression efforts will prevent his own father, a veteran, from casting a ballot this fall in Pennsylvania.

"I have a problem," Cramer said on Twitter Tuesday morning. "My dad, a vet, won't be allowed to vote in Pa. because he does not drive, he is elderly, and can't prove his citizenship."
