Debate grows over countywide voting in Texas counties
The Texas Tribune reports lawmakers push to end countywide polling as 96 counties currently let voters cast ballots anywhere in the county on election day. Officials warn scrapping the program would require more polling places, staff, and equipment, risking voter confusion and disenfranchisement. Critics claim security concerns lack evidence, while officials defend countywide voting as effective.
