1. This is the kind of shit, the GOP will pull in the fall to disenfranchise the American People from the vote.

Thanks for the thread Rhiannon

2. Exactly! This is what we were warned about and were certainly afraid of! Thanks, Uncle Joe!

3. The way I have seen this interpreted elsewhere

is that votes which were cast after 7pm are being reserved until it can be determined if the outcome of any races would be changed by counting them.

It sounds like the Texas Supreme Court was deferring a remedy until the effect of the disruption can be better quantified.

I would like to understand how voter suppression in the primary affords Republicans any advantage when their own voters are also confused about where they need to go in order to vote.
