If you recall a bit back, the ambulatory pile of racist garbage Kris Kobach appointed a judge from my county (Jefferson) to the commission. I had assumed he was an under the radar nutjob, kind of like how the Luv Guv came from nowhere. Here is what Alan L. King wrote:

Even a commission member not in attendance made his critical voice heard. The panel “should be expanding the rights of our citizens to vote, instead of arguably looking for ways to keep people from voting,” wrote Alan L. King, a Democrat and probate judge in Jefferson County, Ala., in a stinging letter.

“Some parts of our electorate wish to beat their chests on so-called ‘voter fraud,’ and there may be some isolated instances” of irregularities, he wrote. “But, I would venture to say, thousands upon thousands more people are stricken from voter rolls without justifiable cause or have their vote suppressed.”
