If you live in Texas and intend to vote during midterms, do not assume you'll get to vote on election day. You need to vote during early voting.
We already saw during the primaries that the GOP is cutting as many polling places as possible so people can't make it in time or aren't able to stand in line long enough to vote.
Tarrant County is about to have a vote to cut about half of their polling sites. Expect more of that in your area, and expect that you might not hear about it.
Lon Burnam, a former Texas House Democrat, was carried out of the meeting by deputies who told him he was under arrest.
Also, check REPEATEDLY that you're registered to vote, especially as we get closer to the election! Just because you were registered in March doesn't necessarily mean you'll still be registered in November.
The last day to register to vote in the midterms is October 5.
The early voting is October 19 thru October 30.
LIKE THIS SHIT
If allowed to proceed, it would likely be the first time Texas voting maps are changed between the primary and general elections.
Oh, the party's nominee wasn't even in your primary? Too bad, the GOP was worried their candidate might lose so they redid the voting maps. You get next door's candidate instead.
This is blatantly illegal, but I've never known SCOTX to give a fuck about that.
