 On Tuesday night, voter turnout was higher than it was in the last midterm cycle — a very inconvenient truth for Dems who spent months claiming the recently enacted election integrity law would disenfranchise voters. [More]

That and motivated Republican voters means Party leadership is really going to have to outdo themselves if they want to blow it...

Rs will find a way to snatch debacle from the jaws of victory. And if the Rs retain the state house they'll still install Ds in rather important committee chair spots. That's a tale for another day.

For the record; Harris County (Houston) election administrator's office could not complete the vote count to meet state deadlines.

This with a county turnout of about 14% of voters voting. I imagine the '24 election results will take weeks to tally when 40% or so of voters show up to vote.

Oddly enough I don't recall such nonsense when the elected county clerk ran the elections. No problems until the D majority county commissioners invented the appointed gig of election administrator and chose a sexually confused individual to run the cluster.

In the land where every day is opposite day, voter suppression causes an increase of voters at the polls.

See? That wasn't so hard, was it?
