5. they are suppressing their own voters too - they are just too dumb to figure it out

Most of what they are trying to do impacts every single voter, one way or another.

One section requires ID on the mail in ballot. This is defined as the Driver's License number and the last 4 digits of the SSN. In order for this info to not be destroyed by accident, it may end up on the ballot itself which is a clear violation of the right to privacy. Currently the idea is to write these numbers on the inside of the mailing envelope which is an invitation for it to be destroyed

Poll watchers are just as capable of annoying Republican voters as they are Democratic voters.
In all my times as an elections judge, I have never once had a Poll Watcher show up. They have to be credentialed by the county and wear identification. They also have to take the same training that the judges do.

We have 300 voting locations in Tarrant County. It is going to take a lot of them to cover all the locations
