Early voting in Texas isn't going so well for some

Wait, did the SAVE Act already pass and they forgot to tell voters? No!

I’m going to need an update on this. I hope she was able to cast her ballot in the primary.

Texans, if this is happening to you, post your story with the polling location. Put it on blast. And report it.

This is not surprising. The Republicans control all the state offices and their tactics to discourage and suppress voters have this as a result. I hope she will be able to cast her vote. They will stoop to the lowest levels possible to keep registered voters that they feel won't support them, especially minority voters and even some young voters from casting their ballots.

This plus a lot of voter apathy across the state results in Texas being a very low turnout state. That's what Republicans hope for in every election.

2. I always wonder

How the hell Ann Richards and Lyndon Johnson got elected . And of course Shirley Chisholm.
