This was a bit of a surprise.
The GOP had already disallowed and won the fight over mail ins. You have to be 65 or older to get a mail ballot just because you don't want to go to the polls behind Covid concerns.
Harris county was going to have drop boxes at around 11 early voting sites.
Now, counties with a population of 20,000 will have the same number of drop boxes as Harris County with its population of almost 5 million.
One.
The GOP already won the fight over mail ballots...this is just political rubbing salt in the faces of the Harris County Dems.
Its kind of mixed signals from our Republican governor. He fought the GOP and extended the number of early voting days. GOP sued and lost on that issue.
