HEB supports Harris County Vote by Mail initiative

Interesting.

For those not in the area, A Harris County clerk decided to decree that they were going to mail out ballots to all registered voters...and then only over-65 voters. Ken Paxton and the Harris County Republicans decided to sue and the Texas Supreme Court has temporarily blocked Harris County from sending out ballots.

Included in all of this is the fact that the clerk sent out mail-in ballots to all over 65 year olds in July prior to the runoff and the Republicans didn't sue. The Republicans are also sending out their own mail-in ballots, with Trump on the envelope, to their consituents.

And now, HEB has backed the county.



Here's a good read about the whole ordeal:
