一句话看懂
Texas suspended over 1.2 million voter registrations, about 6% of registered voters. Voters can fix status by Oct. 5 deadline or vote provisionally.
背景
Texas has placed more than 1.2 million voters on its 'suspense' list ahead of the November midterm elections. This happens when election officials cannot confirm a voter's current address, often due to returned mail or indications of a move. Being on the list does not cancel registration but requires an extra step at the polls. The deadline to update registration is October 5.
