This article says Texas state government has already spent $8,000,000 in legal costs, defending its 2013 photo ID law for voters at the polls, and the U.S. House and legislative districting plans enacted after the 2010 census. And neither issue is resolved yet, so costs will continue to climb.
Cost per Texas voter to maintain the minority rule gerrymander oligarchy ???
2015Q2 stats – estimated $ per person, annual rates
Govt IN — 15,678
Govt OUT — 19,912
Deficit — -4,234 >>> adding to the coming bankruptcy of most governments in the USA.
Basic economic INSANITY in governments since 1929.
On a per vote (denied) basis…chump change, and well spent by the Republican Party…enemy of democracy.
Please lets call it the Texas State Government, on behalf of the Texas Republican Party, has spent $8M.
