[leaning conservative]

Texas????!!!!

[Puppage]

What’s the point of voting now?

[Dalberg-Acton]

"Who is the Texas Sec. of State.....Tony Blinken?"

Jane Nelson. An alleged Republican.

[V_TWIN]

And a former teacher who served two terms on the State Board of Education

[ptsal]

An amazingly bad idea....

[MayflowerMadam]

This is one of Gov. Abbott’s guys? REALLY? Shameful.

[BigFreakinToad]

that is F’n BULL$H!T!! Unfortunately in Texas, a Mexican ID is accepted as legal ID.
Texas should have closed that hole a long time ago.

Trump’s legal team needs to find a friendly Texas judge - FAST.

[dware]

You would not expect this to be allowed in Texas

On the contrary, this is exactly what I would expect from Texas, land of Sheila Jackson Lee and Beto.

[MayflowerMadam]

In pecking order, does AG or SOS trump one or the other? Are they equal on the Org Chart?

Paxton can sue Nelson; that’s what an ATTORNEY General does. Do it.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

In most states the Secretary of State is an elected office.

Fifteen or so years ago Soros decided to target SOS and AG on the state level because they were not high profile jobs but they have a great deal of power. This is the end result.

So to summarize, no, not one of Abbots guys. And in your own state, pay attention to those two offices.

Which azho came up with the non-citizen’s driver’s license idea? I came here from Arizona with an active license, and they made my life hell because they wouldn’t accept my Birth Certificate that was in my military file for 22 years. They took my Arizona license and acted like it was a POS. I had to pay 86 bucks for a new birth certificate from my birth state. Then they wanted to fight with me because my middle name I’ve been using since my Catholic confirmation was not recognized although I’ve been using it since my confirmation. Now I learned I could have just applied for a non-citizen driver’s license. What the ....

[FlingWingFlyer]

When did Texas start allowing non-citizens to vote? That’s illegal. Isn’t it?

[waterhill]

Not a chance in hell.

[red-dawg]

I am an Election Judge in my county, and have been for 10 years.

I WILL NOT COMPLY.

I will NOT allow an Illegal Alien to vote in MY PRECINCT, if I KNOW he/she is one.

[waterhill]

We don’t. They have already expunged thousands. More on the way.
