From the article: California alone accounts for almost half of national polling location cuts.

Yeah, it's all those Republicans controlling California who are suppressing the vote... You're being misled.

What you are overlooking is that California is going heavily for mail-in voting this year, with all registered voters automatically being sent a mail-in ballot.

That's quite different from states that are cutting polling places without expanding mail-in voting.
