GOP pushes bills to restrict the use of ballot boxes on Election Day

[TexasTowelie]

The state Senate Elections Committee took up a number of bills Wednesday centered around ballot drop boxes, including bills that would cut back the hours ballots can be dropped off on Election Day and require video surveillance of drop boxes.

One of the most controversial bills on the table at Wednesday’s meeting was Senate Bill 286, introduced by Sen. Ed McBroom (R-Vulcan).

The bill initially proposed stopping voting through drop boxes at 5 p.m. on the day before Election Day. McBroom offered a change to the bill that would extend the proposed deadline to 5 p.m. on Election Day.

Under current law, voters are allowed to vote by drop box until 8 p.m. on Election Day.
