Honestly the “we found a monkey who will do the job no questions asked” bit of this sketch is reflective of so much of this era

Note they didn’t do their own lege districts, for exactly that reason
A picture of all-time badass Stagecoach Mary Fields, holding her rifle.
Happy International Women's Day!
Remember, when in doubt, do as Stagecoach Mary Fields did, and either headbutt, shoot it, set it on fire, or let your horses trample it.
"She broke more noses than any other person in central Montana."
I’m going Yasiin Bey on this one
Why are you such an unpleasant shithead
Unless they mean “until we pass the 11-0 map”
Ha who said this admin doesn’t care about new approaches to development cooperation
Da is wery good
Sounds like special master time
Ok so Paxton can get the senate endorsement and Cornyn can become the new jr senator from Oklahoma
a majority of Georgians live in metro Atlanta; Texas is more evenly split between sub/ex/urbanites and small town/rural republican voters who turn out consistently in statewide elections
Texas has 3x the population of Georgia and a much larger proportion that lives outside of metro areas
Not enough people voted for her?
Hell yeah brother
Wait which one is the sorta normie
She could’ve run for reelection in TX-30 and won easily but yes, looking forward to another statewide race from her. Unfortunately the big ones aren’t up again until ‘30
This’ll be fun
boo this man

Re Dallas primary voting chaos—Here’s the SCOTX order staying district court’s order extending voting to 9 pm. It orders segregation of votes cast by voters who were not already in line to vote by 7 pm, and notes the petition for mandamus is still pending. www.txcourts.gov/media/146223...
I've seen enough: James Talarico (D) wins the #TXSEN Dem primary.
Confused voters at the wrong voting locations in Dallas and Eastland. Delayed primary results in Williamson. Conflicting court orders.
@jessicahuseman.bsky.social @nataliaecm.bsky.social and Dallas Free Press have you covered tonight, with more to come from @votebeat.org
…confused by the change. Judge agreed, extending hours for D primary voting sites, Paxton got the GOP-dominated SCOTX to overturn the order. But it didn’t apply to his primary race.
GOP county organizations in Dallas & Williamson counties opted out of using the countywide voting system for their primary, meaning dems couldn’t use it either. Dallas Dem party sought the extension from a judge tonight on the grounds that D voters were unfairly…
Seeing confused takes about Paxton intervening to overturn extended voting hours in an election where he’s on the ballot—the extension applied to democratic primary voting locations only
Hours were only extended for the democratic primary
Kuwait is lucky it wasn’t a flight of F-35s
🚨 DALLAS COUNTY: Voting hours at Democratic polling locations have been extended to 9 p.m. CT.
You can still vote as long as you’re in line by 9 p.m. CT. Check your precinct before you go.

A judge has ordered Dallas County polling places to stay open until 9pm CT for the *Democratic primary only.*
Sounds like the county party organization was able to opt out of the countywide system and force everybody into separate party primaries that require precinct voting only?
