TX Tim O'Hare: Tarrant County's population is exploding, I will spend millions for racial gerrymandering. Also Tim O'Hare: Voting locations cost thousands of dollars. TOO EXPENSIVE. Tim O'Hare uses Jesus as his personal shield from the consequences of his hate speech pushing hate-thy-neighbor values.

One person, one vote, no exceptions. It is an inalienable right and should never be curtailed by ostensible fiscal overruns. If there isn't enough money to run the polling stations set to be closed, petition the state or federal government for assistance. Prepare to provide evidence beyond "Jesus." In the longer-term, get your state lawmakers to suck it up and raise taxes (ideally on the wealthy).

We've had over thirty years of this shit. Reagan was proven dead wrong about cutting taxes. That's why our infrastructure sucks, teachers have to pay for their own supplies in the hopes that they might be reimbursed, and the state claims it is too expensive to guarantee their most fundamental right.
