[W: 110] Texas House Democrats preparing to flee the state in move that could block voting restrictions bill, bring Legislature to a halt

[highroller]

The Democrats want to nationalize the elections. Do you understand what that means? More of the same dirty tricks only on a more sophisticated national level where everything can be hidden. Dems or GOP makes no difference. None are honest.

Nah, it is quite obvious you don’t understand what these bills would do from this post.

So voting is not important enough to wait a few hours to vote.
People in other countries have given their lives just to vote.
And you complain about waiting on line.

Yes, **** that. I have to work.

 

[highroller]

Get an absentee ballot.

I do that now, but before 2018 we didn’t have no reason absentee. You had to be out of town.

 

[jaypatriot]

Yes, **** that. I have to work.

Here, I'll help you out.
Chances are you live in one of the 30 states that require employers to give you time off to vote.

Hey High,
How come you're so knowledgeable about voting laws that have not yet had a chance to take effect?
That's like voting for Senile Biden and never knowing what he's going to say or do.
You've swallowed the entire narrative from Old Joe and his Jim Crow 2.0 bullshit.

Let's give Tucker Carlson credit for correctly calling out what the cowardly Texas Democrats have done by fleeing their state.

"They did this in order to deny the Texas legislature a quorum, and then they shut it down. They shut down the democratic process in their state by leaving Texas. They, in other words, violated their sworn duty to represent their voters."
The intentions of Democrat lawmakers are "obvious," he said, as the majority of Texas voters overwhelming want voter integrity laws to pass to ensure the sanctity of future elections. The law also expands early voting, and removes pandemic-era allowances that facilitated less oversight during 2020 elections.

WATCH: Tucker Carlson slams Democrats' growing hysteria on voter integrity laws​

"Nothing in the bill is radical or without extensive precedent if you oppose voter fraud. In fact, it's all very obvious and not controversial at all. And that's why it's so popular with voters in Texas."

I know what they want in Michigan and it has nothing to do with election security.

well that was quite easy...

That's your proof? A tweet or two? Show me some court transcripts. That would be proof.

actually they are doing their duty to voters by blocking the bill via leaving the state.....its a filibuster on steroids

No, it’s a typical neo Democrat move. An attempt to change the rules outside of the legislative process. They‘re lawbreakers.

Good job, Clara,
Praising lawmakers for abrogating their responsibilities by running away from their jobs like cowards. You know they can't get away with it. And there is nothing Biden can do about it. The TX bill will get passed anyway.
So you praise the cowardly Democrats for not doing their jobs.
You must be a Democrat.

nah, its a political move....what's good for the goose.....ask McConnell about obstruction

They're simply postponing the inevitable.
Like Biden leaving office and Kamala getting defeated in 2024.

they aren't being paid...you damn right I am praising them for doing precisely what their constituents want them to.....stop the nonsense by whatever means necessary.

aren't you getting the cart before the horse?

I am happy to watch them fail in their quixotic quest for failure as politicians.
They accomplish nothing by running off to D.C.
Then they get Covid.
And now they're going to be arrested when they return to TX.
What do you think they are in? A "Rocky" movie?

And you cannot even name one thing in the proposed bill that would logically be considered 'voter suppression'.
They, and you, must have listened to Biden say the GOP voting bill is Jim Crow on steroids.
That makes as much sense as Biden saying "Facebook is killing people".

If the legislative branch funding is not restored how will they pass a redistricting bill? How long does redistricting last?

Looks like a worthwhile Google search to me.

No. I am prescient. And you are wishfully thinking.

nah you have no clue what will happen in 2024.

So you dont mind if the Republicans do this same thing in the Senate. Just leave the Senate without a quorum.

Is that the way this country should operate? What's good for the goose? What does Mitch M. have to do with Texas and voting rights laws?

we have had 13 nearly 14 years of obstruction from fake Republicans.....sorry that you're mad that you are getting your own medicine
