Q. Who can "actively" challenge my ballot?
A. Poll watchers (candidates, representatives of candidates or representatives of issues) are allowed inside the polls to observe, and sometimes they challenge the ballots of voters. Normally, they base a challenge on identity, address or date of birth of the voter. In other words, a poll watcher questions that a voter is who he says he is, questions that he lives at the stated address, or questions that he is old enough to vote.
Poll workers (election officials) may also challenge your ballot based on identity.

Q. What happens if my ballot is challenged by a pollwatcher?
A. Your ballot will be maintained separately from other ballots until the close of the polls. At that time, Election Commissioners verify your registration and eligibility to vote at that poll. If your registration and eligibility are in order, they will count your ballot.

In TX, the challanged voter, gets to vote but in a recount then the challenge will be verified and if not allowed the ballot envelope will be opened and the ballot # revealed (by a judge) and taken out of the count.

Also those lawyers will have to be poll watchers themselves to be allowed in and can't talk to anyone but the election judge. If they talk they can be thrown out by the election judge. Course if the election judge is a dem, they might not do it.

but the poll watcher should be allowed to challenge any voter that sounds reasonable to challenge. I think I wouldn't waste time at the point of the lawyer causing trouble but would call the local FBI.
