Unfortunately these things are usually targeted, they know the demographics of the areas they choose to implement voter suppression tactics like what they did in Texas.
In other places too they can have 2 rules that seem innocent enough, but combined you see where it’s going. Rule 1: no more than x number of ballot collection areas (some number too small to handle local capacity of ballots) Rule 2: ballots not counted by some time are illegitimate and/or allow the state government to step in and declare an “irregularity” which then plays off of New Law™ that states the government gets to decide what happens to elections when an “irregularity” is discovered. These again are only implemented in places that have high Democrat enrollment or are majority black/POC neighborhoods.
Our best hope is that republican voter suppression initiatives backfire because the average republican is a blithering idiot
