Texas Secretary of State Files Brief in Opposition to Texas Republican Party

On October 30, Jane Nelson, Texas Secretary of State and a Republican herself, filed this brief in Hunt v State, n.d., 2:25cv-200. Her brief says the Republican Party’s attempt to have the open primary declared unconstitutional is procedurally flawed. She says the party hasn’t completed the process for establishing that it doesn’t want an open primary. She also says the case was filed too soon, because the party is only requesting a closed primary itself starting in 2028, not 2026.
