1. Hmm..

But they are closing voting stations?

[Dem2]

3. They did that as a precaution to protect already cast votes?

Maybe they will open more after this ruling.

[cilla4progress]

5. Got it.

Wonder how that affects the vote tomorrow?

2. What's happening?!

SANITY in Texas???

OMG!

4. So, I'm assuming it goes before SCOTUS tomorrow...

...and we'll find out they're ordering the ballots thrown out after the polls close, when it's too late to do anything about it.

11. SCOTUS will yield to the state Supreme Court which has already said NO!

[TwilightZone]

13. No.

Roberts has already stated that courts don't determine election rules; state legislatures do. It's going nowhere.

6. Damn if Republicans did not make a mess here. So are they opening the what 15 of 16

they were going to shut down?

[Eliot Rosewater]

7. GOP works overtime to stop voting, they are traitors, armed traitors.

I know what they would do if we were doing what they are doing.

8. Whoa!

I thought this time the Repugs would prevail, as long as the previously cast votes were deemed legitimate.

These suppression law suits thus far are not working!

Hallelujah.

9. It was my understanding

That curbside voting is different from drive through voting. Anybody could do drive through but you needed a reason to do curbside.

Maybe someone can chime in with more information.

10. OK, so all these late rulings mean that..

First, the 127,000 drive-thru ballots will be counted,
but secondly, now all votes have to be cast in buildings
not tents.

So Hollins had the ten places with tents dismantled, while
the huge Toyota Center remains as a polling location.

12. Huge relief.

In the last 24 hours we've prevailed in several important legal cases.

Philadelphia
Minnesota
Nevada
Texas

This looks like a really good sign
