“Texas Redistricting”, the blog that has the most detailed information about the Texas redistricting saga, has posted this commentary, suggesting that the Texas primary will need to be postponed again, from April 3 to an undetermined later date. The primary was already moved once, from March 6.

Petitioning for independent candidates and unqualified parties cannot begin until the primary has been held. Furthermore, the deadline for independent presidential candidate petitions is May 14. The later that petition may begin to circulate, the less feasible this deadline remains.
