Election administration offices are very often woefully understaffed and under funded. And if our large Texas county is any indication staffed by people who are not especially competent. Also, a certain party fights like crazy not to clean them up. Also, people do not like believing our elections might not be as accurate as they should be. You would be surprised how strong the compulsion is to believe our elections are highly accurate processes. Post 2020, a group of folks here who happen to be retired intelligence services/military data analysts combed through voter rolls and found enough irregularities and unanswered questions to make a 25 page PowerPoint which was disbelieved by officials on both sides of the aisle. In 2022 several surprise losses by narrow and not so narrow margins occurred. Finally 6000 voters were removed this year which was more than enough to account for the surprise losses. So, it’s multi factorial but with persistence and about 200 years of combined experience by intelligence analysts who did this kind of thing their whole careers it can be done.
