Mail-in ballot applications for the March 1 primary are being rejected by almost 40% — largely because of a missing ID number, which is now required after a new voting bill passed the Legislature last year.
Pew Research has recently come out with a study which appears to be good news for Republicans.
I was thinking the other day, which is becoming increasingly more difficult as my brain cells atrophy and turn to mush — thanks to the aging process — that life is too short not to have as much fun as possible. Or even more important: be happy.
Early voting in the March 1 primary begins on Feb. 14 and runs through Feb. 25. The last day to apply for a ballot by mail is Feb. 18.
Primary election season has now officially begun, and it shows. Last Saturday in Conroe, Texas, former president Donald Trump held the largest rally in the history of Texas. The line of cars heading for the grounds was miles long and began forming many hours before the event. The Right Side Broadcasting Net work offered half a day of coverage and had at least 150,000 viewers. A gaggle of major national networks was also there, although 90 percent of them finished broadcasting before The Donald had completed his remarks. Presumably they were intent on getting their coverage to stations in time for the 10 o’clock news (although Right Side interpreted their actions as showing bias or a lack of interest).
