“A lawsuit filed by Texas’ Republican Party to stop drive-thru balloting in Harris County has been tossed out for now. On Wednesday, the 14th Court of Appeals dismissed the lawsuit against Harris County Clerk Chris Collins, allowing for curbside and drive-thru voting to continue. The lawsuit came as the first day of early voting got underway in Texas. Harris County saw record turnout. More than 128,000 people voted in the county on Tuesday, nearly doubling the record set in 2016. Currently, Harris County has opened 10 drive-thru voting sites, including its flagship at NRG Park, where the county’s election headquarters are staged. The county cited COVID-19 concerns for setting up the drive-thru voting locations around the Houston area” – ABC13 Houston.
