This legislative session already has more than 1,000 bills to consider, and dozens of them directly relate to how, where, and when we vote.

Among the 84 election-related bills we found filed in the Texas House and Senate, the proposals run the gamut. They range from implementing electronic voter registration, to codifying polling places, locations, and times, regulating voting machine software, changing voter eligibility and ID requirements, increasing the punishment for illegal voting, and even changing the way in which we cast our ballots. State Rep. John Bucy, D-Cedar Park, filed some two dozen of them.

State Sen. Paul Bettencourt, R-Houston, also filed multiple bills related to election security, as he did in the last session. This time, many of them focus on election-related issues in Harris County.
