The Texas House now has a quorum, and will meet on Monday, August 23. The House is expected to take up SB 13, to move the 2022 primary to a later date. This will have profound changes for Texas ballot access in 2022. Whenever Texas has moved to a later primary (generally because of late redistricting) ballot access changes significantly for that particular election year. This is because of the primary screen-out, and the law that says petitions can’t circulate until the primary is over. Thanks to Jim Riley for the news about SB 13.
