Fort Bend County has experienced a remarkable transformation in its political landscape in recent years, largely due to the influence of technology. As the population of Fort Bend County has become increasingly diverse, Republicans have had to modify their strategies to remain competitive. In the 2018 midterm elections, Republicans shifted their focus away from electoral integrity issues and instead concentrated on other topics. This change in focus was likely due to the fact that the white population of Fort Bend County has been steadily decreasing.
In order to keep up with the changing demographics, Fort Bend County has invested in new technology to guarantee that their elections are fair and secure. In particular, Districts 2 and 3 have taken steps to upgrade their voting equipment. Grady Prestage of District 2 and Andy Meyers of District 3 were part of a committee that chose a company to provide the updated equipment. The introduction of new technology into Fort Bend County's political arena has had a considerable impact on the way that elections are conducted. By investing in updated voting equipment, Fort Bend County is ensuring that their elections are secure and that all votes are counted accurately.
This is an essential step towards guaranteeing that all citizens have their voices heard in the political process.
