In Texas the most populous counties have rejected approximately 10% of the mail-in ballot applications. Most were rejected because people didn’t fulfill the stringent identification requirements, although they were on the voter rolls. People in the most populous counties are more likely to vote Democratic.
This is the kind of legislation Republican legislators like Doyle Heffley are pushing in Pennsylvania. If you can’t win an election fair and square, cheat. It is the new Republican playbook.
