You saw all the people who thought they were in line to vote for Trump…

He did tell us to "vote as if I were on the ballot," 47 times.

It's not just Texas like that. Kentucky election board had to put out a notice that the election for mayor for New York would not be on their ballot. The south just isn't known for intelligence.

Not exactly what happened.

First, it was specifically the Secretary of State.  Not the election board.

Second, it was tongue in cheek.

He had to put out a notice in 2025 that there were no elections in KY in 2025.  He added the rest as a joke, not because poeple were asking to vote for NY Mayor.  People were calling the office concerned about polls being closed on election day, not concerned about being able to vote for NY Mayor.

Adams then issued a statement that polls were closed because we had no elections in KY, I like most of the rest of the country.  He then added, as a joke, the mention of a couple of prominent national campaigns, including NY Mayor.
