Then the stuff they call out is just so stupid...
Texas’ status as the hardest place to vote in the country
If this is the hardest place to vote, then damn it's easy to vote other places. I'm coming up on 15 years in Texas and I've voted pretty much every year here in several different areas I've lived at those times. Voting is about as difficult as going to the grocery store, gas station, getting food, going to work. In fact in many cases it's easier. I walked to vote many times and I've never waited in line more than 10 people. What I really think they are saying is it's hard for unqualified people to vote here.
Only 19% of Texas voters believe there is frequent voter fraud
If you were asking about Texas specifically, I'd probably be on the 81% group as well. I don't see evidence of frequent fraud here because of the things put in place. It's very transparent. Still, why not put more protections in place? The stuff they are adding is totally trivial to a legit qualified voter.
But the Texas I know is Black and brown, with more than 50% of the state’s population being Black, Latino or Asian.
It's the Latinos. Yeah, basically just the Latinos making up that number. They probably don't want to be lumped in with the Blacks either.
To put the state’s seismic political weight into perspective, based on the current electoral map, Democrats could lose Arizona, Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin – and still take the White House if they won Texas.
By the way, this is why they want Texas, and it's really the only reason, but that's enough of my ranting about stupidity.
What I really think they are saying is it's hard for unqualified people to vote here.
That's what they always mean. They're calling any attempt to make our elections slightly less corrupt, "Jim Crow 2.0." It's not about voting rights it's about there ability to stuff ballots.
