9 months agoThey’re mostly in rural parts of the states where private (read: investor owned) utilities determined the region wouldn’t turn a large enough profit to expand there and the state’s public utility commission didn’t mandate their expansion
If I’m not mistaken, I’ve heard stories about it being prohibitively difficult to vote (long lines, inadequate staffing & # of locations, banning vote-by-car, a COVID response) in urban areas. Can’t imagine a lot of those barriers exist in more rural areas.
