More from the Rolling Stone article referenced in the OP:

"Republicans are meanwhile working to impose even more barriers to voting nationwide: using Social Security numbers and motor vehicle databases to purge legitimate voters from the rolls, denying the vote to citizens who don't have government-issued IDs, and relying on electronic voting machines than can be easily rigged to fix an election. In May, snafus with the machines prolonged the primary vote count in Cleveland for a week, despite trivial turnout. And in June, dozens of poll workers took the machines home with them, unsupervised, the night before an election in San Diego. Two hundred and six House members have signed on in support of a bill that would require a verifiable paper trail that can be recounted, but the measure is being held hostage by Republican leadership."
