States deciding where polling locations will be and what languages voting material is printed in can lead to underrepresentation for certain voting populations, particularly those who may have difficulty accessing polling locations or understanding voting materials in a language other than English. Additionally, states implementing heavy voter ID restrictions can disenfranchise certain voting populations who may not have easy access to identification.
