In Texas' case, it took 146 years to partially restore the right that was stripped from the Texas Constitution by the carpetbagger government in 1869.Correct. And Texas culture and attitudes survived Reconstruction (that R-word was not an accurate descriptive word for what it was). The reason it was not previously reversed is the POLs in Austin & DC feared the citizens of Texas. The citizens of Texas do not fear the citizens of Texas.
