> The Texas law that requires you bring something like a bank or utility bill is considered voter suppression by opponents. [1] But this is just the same as the German requirement to bring a mailed voter notification. It really isn't the same: > An estimated 5.4 percent of U.S. households (approximately 7.1 million) were “unbanked” in 2019, meaning that no one in the household had a checking or savings account at a bank or credit union (i.e., bank). From https://www.fdic.gov/analysis/household-survey/index.html https://www.fdic.gov/analysis/household-survey/index.html And that figure is only for entire households, there are more unbanked individuals, and it is very common for households to have adults that don't have any utilities in their name. OTOH, a mailed notification only presupposes that an individual is on the rolls.
