Texas’ elections director needs firing | Fort Worth to shut down “game rooms” | Sales tax turns down – Pratt on Texas 10/9/2024

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: I was right in my speculation about the Denton County story on letting those with non-citizens state ID’s vote but only partly. Now that we’ve learned more, it is much worse. In my informed opinion the Secretary of State’s elections chief is either too stupid to do the job or is biased for illegal voting. She needs to be removed by Secretary of State Nelson. Anyone with a brain would know that the solution to the legitimate problem is to use a Provisional Ballot, not a regular ballot.

Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.

Fort Worth to shut down so-called “game rooms” now that the Texas Supreme Court has turned down an appeal by operators. Lubbock County’s conservative Commissioner Jason Corley to put game room regulation on the agenda, again, for next Monday’s Commissioners’ Court meeting.

The local sales tax collection report shows continued slowing of spending. Look up your city here.

A disturbing survey shows about half of “people of faith” do not plan to vote in the election. How in the world can you be unclear on what to do with headlines like this: Porn Industry Launches Ads Supporting Harris Campaign.

As mentioned: Republicans have a South Texas fundraising boon in election.
