‼️ Weeks before midterms, Texas election officials have discovered that an unknown number of voter registration applications havent been processed due to an error by the DPS. The Texas Association of County Elected Officials say number could be "tens of thousands" - much of them in urban areas.

votebeat.org

Error means unknown number of Texas voter registrations haven’t been processed yet

It’s unknown how many prospective voters have been affected.

126 years ago today in New York City, Mr. William Marsh Rice was murdered with chloroform in his sleep by the valet, who had conspired with a local attorney. Their scheme to steal his fortune eventually unraveled thanks to a bank teller who noticed a misspelled name on a suspiciously large check.

Fun fact: the U.S. House can sue a sitting president with a simple majority vote. If the Democrats retake the chamber, they should do more than just "investigate" Trump's corruption. They should sue him in federal court for the illegal ballroom, Qatari jet, and more.
