Re: Ah yes.
No one is arguing that it can't be improved, but the bills republicans have been proposing have nothing to do with improving elections. Reducing the number of days early voting is available doesn't reduce fraud. Reducing the hours polls are open doesn't reduce fraud. Preventing people from handing out water to people waiting in line for hours doesn't reduce fraud.
Some of the changes INCREASE the chance for fraud. Some states seek to allow their legislature to override the will of the voters "if they think they there was fraud". They don't have to prove any fraud in a court of law, the legislature can decide on their own that because their guy lost fraud must have occurred. Hopefully democrats will be able to pass a national law preventing that, and/or courts will find it unconstitutional. Otherwise once you get a republican legislature in a state it will always vote republican since they can just override the votes by claiming fraud, without any requirement to prove that fraud occurred.
All the counties republicans claim there was fraud have a large minority population (most are majority minority) It is a pretty transparently racist thing - they don't like that blacks don't vote for them, so they seek to nullify their votes.
