BREAKING: Gov. Abbott issues proclamation CLOSING (as of Oct. 2) satellite offices where voters can drop off completed mail-in ballots. Counties can only have 1 dropoff point, he says. Travis has 4, including 3 downtown. Harris has 12.
Abbott says move, which also requires early voting clerks to let poll watchers observe ballot delivery, is an election security measure. Clerks said the multiple dropoff spots were to help voters, particularly amid questions about Postal Service efficiency.
Read the proclamation, which amended Abbott's July 27 order that extended early voting and allowed early dropoff of mail ballots, here: https://gov.texas.gov/uploads/files/press/PROC_COVID-19_Nov_3_general_election_IMAGE_10-01-2020.pdf …

Did he give a reason?
No but we know the reason.
wow, they're not even trying to hide. Not that they ever have been especially careful about it.
They're downsizing the opportunity for fraud, those who want to get around this should do early voting locally. Forgo mail-in ballots that have the potential for fraud or abuse by "handlers".
On the upshot...Suppressing the vote in TEXAS speaks loud for how they think this election is going for @realDonaldTrump.
Their internal polling must be horrific. They know he’s done.
