    Politicians who are unafraid of accountability make it easier to #vote, not harder. Texas will do best when we make it easier for all citizens to participate in deciding our shared future.https://www.mysanantonio.com/opinion/commentary/article/Why-is-the-Texas-Attorney-General-afraid-of-young-12547590.php …

        "He (Paxton) argues that taking a student to the polls would lack an “educational purpose.”" meanwhile, Ken Paxton faces criminal chrges for securities fraud & failing to register with the state as an investment adviser rep. He's facing life in prison, but seeking re-election.pic.twitter.com/jSpZdJMIQd

        They know young voters represent the future of Texas and the majority don't want anything to do with a party built on discrimination and bigotry

        If one has to provide ID to buy cigarettes, beer, open a bank account, why is it wrong to require that same ID to vote?

        Because every time libs start talking about voting rights they accuse Repubs of preventing minorities from voting, by poll taxes, voter roles, or the necessity of having an ID. But it was the Dems that used poll taxes to keep black people from voting.

        Someone recently said TX is not really a red or blue state. It is a NON voting state as approx half of possible vote pool does NOT vote. Which is why such ideas terrify the GOP.

        Not sure it's fear but rather hate and bigotry.

        Surely you mean, “Why don’t we let illegal aliens vote?” This will be the undoing of the Democrat Party, so be it.
