How on earth are other voters supposed to have or get evidence of other voters citizenship? Challenges filed by actual elected officials may still be corrupt attempts to suppress the vote by challenging without reason but at least its a limited pool of people who are actually accountable to the people. Allowing any yahoo to challenge all the brown people in the county opens the door to a flood of nonsense.
In theory it could be contained by the actual officials that should throw out nonsense but nothing is stopping them using chatGPT to mass produce “evidence” that passes a minimum smell test of looking like real evidence. For instance names are VERY non-unique find every record of registration in any state which matches an ethnic name in your county submit one challenge per name and challenge half the brown people in your county because again names are NOT very unique.

This happened across multiple states last election. So many votes were lost because of “challenges.”
