Why This Score
This scores as high-A due to direct election integrity impact through federal ID requirements that create documented barriers to mail voting. The mechanism (election_admin_change) carries maximum modifier (1.15), federal+broad scope adds 1.10, and the precedent of federal override of state election procedures is highly durable and reusable. While generating moderate media attention, the governance substance clearly dominates the distraction value.
