It’s a Texas Goat Rodeo! (Juanita Jean’s)

Back in July, Gov. Abbott extended early voting in the November election by one week. Early voting will begin October 13th instead of Oct. 19.

Well, here it is late September and The Quorum Report - behind paywall - is reporting this morning under breaking news that Texas Republican Party State Chairman Allen West (yes, that Allen West), “Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller, conservative activist Dr. Steve Hotze, Sen. Charles Perry, Sen. Donna Campbell, and others have signed onto a lawsuit against GOP Gov. Greg Abbott focused on his decision to extend early voting in Texas.”

No shoot, Sherlock, they are going to the Texas Supreme Court, who took “Equal Justice Under the Law” off the court building and replaced it with “Attilas the Huns” once they seated nine far right conservatives on the bench.

They waited until campaign materials were printed, people to work the polls were hired, locations were reserved, and things would get real crazy if you change things that are written in print and hanging on peoples’ refrigerators doors. And then, and only then, did they want to shorten early voting time.
