Texas’ GOP calls for an amendment to ensure Republicans always win statewide elections by requiring candidates to win a majority of counties.
Texas has 254 counties. Half its population lives in just 7 of them.
Trump won 232 of counties, but the 22 counties Biden won contain 58% of Texas residents
Apartheid's denial of franchise involved inventing fake "homelands", assigning black people to them, and then removing their SA citizenship, thus denying them the vote and the other rights of citizens
Lol, and they say that Democrats rig elections, I bet that they're doing this not just because they're power-hungry, but because deep down they're afraid to lose and they're willing to play dirty. That's just flat-out cowardice and so anti-democracy, the nerve....
I think Texas, while still red, is a lot lighter red than they're comfortable with. This would be a way to enforce that even if they continue having people come in to try to buy cheaper housing/get jobs at Tesla or whatever.
