— The Biden administration has filed a third lawsuit over voting rights in Texas, keeping America’s biggest red state at the center of a fight over new, more restrictive election laws passed last year by Republicans.
The county is heavily Republican; former President Donald Trump carried it with 60% of the vote in 2020. The Justice Department has already sued Texas over its new redistricting maps in place for 2022, saying the changes discriminate against minority voters, particularly Latinos, who have fueled the state’s population boom. The Biden administration has also sued Texas over a sweeping new voting law that includes new restrictions on mail ballots, and outlawed drive-thru voting and 24-hour polling places.
