A “mass voter challenge” involves individual voters calling into question the eligibility of hundreds or thousands of voters all at once.

From September 2023 to May 2024 , there was a 55 percent increase in the number of these challenges in Michigan alone.

The real goal: overwhelm, chaos, and delay.

Georgia , Michigan , and Texas face “perhaps the highest risk” of being adversely affected by election deniers’ mass voter challenges this cycle.

A federal judge ruled True the Vote’s actions in Georgia did not amount to voter intimidation, despite its having “offered a $1 million bounty’ for reports of voter fraud.
