Texas judge dismisses AG Ken Paxton's attempt to block Bexar County's mail voter registration initiative.
A Texas judge has dismissed Attorney General Ken Paxton's effort to block Bexar County's initiative to mail voter registration forms to 210,000 residents, ruling the request moot since the forms have already been sent. Bexar County officials, who pursued the outreach program despite Paxton's legal threats, argue it is aimed at increasing voter participation and is non-partisan. The lawsuit reflects ongoing tensions between Democratic-led counties and Republican state leaders over voter registration practices.
