The lesson of the previous post is that real actual voter suppression doesn’t look like high-tech vote swapping that the hero of the movie stops by catching the sinister computer screen in a critical moment and then hacking things.
It looks like crappy processes with crappy interfaces and crappy accountability whose purpose (in a POSIWID sense) is to confuse, thwart, vex, bamboozle, and exhaust voters.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io The question I have is why is it only reported to happen in favor of one specific party, in states controlled by that party? UI design can also be malicious, that's what the entirety of dark patterns is.
