This is so not shocking, from the Post-Gazette on Allegheny County voters who the state wants to run through ten hoops to allow their votes to count this fall.
And the entire process offends me as a data geek because they are doing name mismatches against voter rolls and PennDot license/registration rolls. Name mismatches are amazingly unreliable as D. Anderson, D.M. Anderson and David Anderson could all be the same person but will flag as a mismatch. The law is designed to fail, and the methodology is designed to insure failure.
Thank you for posting on this nighmare of voter repression. Here is an important checklist:
