This is exactly the impression the author wants to make upon the reader. But it fails to point out the relevant numbers:
1) most deleted polling places are in blue states, not red States.
2) what is most important for access is not the raw number of polling places but the total time polling places are open and usable. Traditionally, this was just 12 or so hours on election day only. Now, many are open for multiple days... or weeks.
