Republican Voter Suppression Efforts

If Dems control the Presidency, House and Senate after this election, their first act of legislation must be a new Voting Rights Act.
 
If there was a way that election vote counters could make an educated guess and try to count likely Democratic voters first, and report those early numbers, it seems like you could put a stop to this strategy real quick.

Added detail...

The drive-through voting system was put in place for the first time this year by Mr. Hollins, the top elections official in Harris County, with unanimous approval by county commissioners.

In a Twitter thread late Monday, Mr. Hollins called the ruling “a huge win for democracy” and said that since the hearing he had consulted with election law experts who confirmed the legality of drive-through voting.

But he also noted that in the order, Judge Hanen said that the tents housing most of the drive-through sites did not properly qualify as “buildings,” as is required for Election Day polling places. For that reason, Mr. Hollins said, only one of the 10 drive-through sites will be open on Election Day, at the Toyota Center arena.

“I cannot in good faith encourage voters to cast their votes in tents if that puts their votes at risk,” he said.
