It's about altering the voting demographics by importing a new block of people who are loyal to the currently ruling party. And whilst that does in this case involve marginalizing the natives politically the race, gender or any other characteristics of the imported block don't matter in this context. It could literally be clones of the natives just brainwashed and the effect would be the same.
What matters is just that the imported block has some good reason to be loyal to you such as gratitude for being allowed to come or fear of being expelled if you are out of office. Preferably both.
I mentioned race because a lot of people think it is about race. You have your people that are screaming "white genocide!" and your people that are screaming "white cis-male patriarchy/apartheid!". They both make it about race. Most people aren't very educated on the topic.
Fair enough.
