@SovernNation Where do you get that NC #? I’ve seen that nowhere. Local media reports it is 117k (maybe less) mail in ballots that could be received.

I see these libs on the timeline celebrating the Texas House Democrat minority exercising their rights as a minority party. Same people who want to get rid of the US Senate’s most powerful minority party right: the filibuster. Lol can’t make it up.
