News summary

Laura Pressley claims to have uncovered a method to determine how every voter in Williamson County, Texas, has voted, raising concerns about ballot secrecy statewide. She refuses to share this information with state officials and is suing the state, proposing a solution that experts believe would undermine ballot secrecy further. Meanwhile, a new Alabama law criminalizing certain forms of absentee ballot assistance is facing a legal challenge, as civil rights groups argue it disproportionately affects vulnerable voters. The law, which makes it a felony to assist with absentee ballot applications under specific circumstances, is being defended by state officials as a necessary measure against voter fraud. U.S. District Judge R. David Proctor is expected to rule on this case before the November general election, with both sides submitting additional briefs soon. The Alabama law's opponents claim it infringes on free speech and voter engagement rights, complicating the electoral process for many residents.
