A voting company owner on Friday acknowledged making a “coercive” demand of 32 Texas counties: Pay an additional surcharge for the software that runs

their voting registration system, or lose it just before November’s elections.

He characterized the charges as a cry for help to get enough money to avoid losing key employees just before November. The surcharges have sent Texas’ largest counties scrambling to approve payments or look at other ways they can avoid losing the software at a critical time.
