In defiance of Paxton, Bexar County Commissioners move forward with plan to mail out voter registration forms

Paxton has said he’ll explore all legal avenues to shut it down

Taylor Goldenstein at the Houston Chronicle has the update:

Attorney General Ken Paxton is warning Bexar and Harris counties that he will sue if they move forward with proposals to mail out voter registration forms en masse to residents.

Despite the threat, Bexar County commissioners voted on Tuesday to move forward with the effort, saying they disagreed with Paxton's legal assessment.

In letters addressed to county commissioners on Sunday, Paxton cautioned that the distribution of forms could include people who are ineligible to vote, which would confuse residents about whether they can legally vote in November.
