ICYMI: I've been reporting on problems with the state's overhaul of its voter registration system. Now, election officials, district clerks, county judges/commissioners, tax assessors are asking the state to halt the rollout and fix the problems first #txlege www.votebeat.org/texas/2025/1...

Efforts to hand-count ballots haven't ceased in Texas. Republicans in Dallas County want to try it. In Gillespie County, they'll do it again. In other counties, Republicans are considering it. By law, there's still no way to audit hand count results #txlege www.votebeat.org/texas/2025/1...
