HOUSTON (AP) — A federal judge on Monday rejected another last-ditch Republican effort to invalidate nearly 127,000 votes in Houston because the ballots were cast at drive-thru polling centers established during the pandemic.

The lawsuit was brought by conservative Texas activists who have railed against expanded voting access in Harris County, where a record 1.4 million early votes have already been cast. The county is the nation’s third largest and a crucial battleground in Texas, where President Donald Trump and Republicans are bracing for the closest election in decades on Tuesday.

^^ this always seemed to be a long shot to not have the votes counted

The anticipated challenge to federal Court in PA re counting votes mailed on or before Nov 3 but received after Nov 3 is going to be very contentious if the election is close.

I don't think it's even a possibility for Republicans. But this time around, I'd prefer that whoever wins, controls the House and Senate too. Even moreso if Biden wins. I want Democrats to have the 4 years to do whatever they want and see how it works out. Then in 2024 we could have a normal election between a non-Trump Republican candidate vs. Kamala Harris/Her Running Mate. No way Biden runs for a 2nd term.
