They have to get everything in place to rig the election before they can have it.

Thank you for keeping this in the news. The problem with Dems is they can't seem to do that as well as maga.

That's outrageous. Next do DC.

Lawsuits ??

What can force Texas to have the election?

inkandire.bsky.social•6 days ago

I think I read Hakeem Jeffries US filing a lawsuit. Folks should call his office!

Obscene. GOP has complete control right now and yet still wants to hold off elections in Dem districts for as long as possible. Seems like legislatures should not be allowed to decide on election dates!

Thank you for speaking up and fighting back. 👏

How is this allowed? Genuinely curious like is there precedent of this?

katmojen.bsky.social•7 days ago

Couldn’t someone in the district sue for loss of representation or something like that?

When was the last time Houston went to war with Austin?

ignognitotx.bsky.social•5 days ago

Ironically, Austin is the Bluest part of the state at this point. Even the traditionally Blue RGV mostly flipped in recent years.

Being the state capital, it is the political hub for a state filled with rural rednecks with power over the urban centers. Just like Oklahoma City.

NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!

When Donald Trump accused Democrats of having dementia he was lying. Democrats never lie. Vladimir Putin's Bitch Donald Trump has dementia.

epdesertnoir.bsky.social•6 days ago

Yes, but what are the 800K people doing about it? That's a lot of voices.They should be jamming the Austin phone lines up and taking a drive there to confront the politicians.

Name and shame Governor Greg Abbott.
