When our legislators tackle election reform, improving citizens’ access to the polls must always be their North Star. Making it easier for Texans to vote and protecting their ballots are not incompatible standards, and we welcome measures that do both through clear, simple and reasonable rules.
That is why we are relieved that Texas lawmakers improved a controversial piece of legislation known as Senate Bill 7 by adopting common-sense initiatives that increase voter access and ballot safety. As we have said before, there is no evidence of rampant voter fraud, but that doesn’t mean we should categorically dismiss any proposed reform to our elections system.
