That's bad any way you look at it, but if that's voters to total residents, including underage, that's really bad.

My personal hot button - I will never understand why not a single politician will help break the veil hiding ballot records.

1) All electronic voting systems currently in use store ballots in a proprietary format that is kept secret.

2) State election code requires all formats of every ballot used in every election must be available for public review.

3) Since electronic ballots are in a secret proprietary format, therefore the law is not respected in this regard.

There are examples of elections where the reported total was wildly different from precinct by precinct totals - and no analysis of the ballot data could be done because the proprietary data format made third-party analysis a violation of copyright.

Does anyone want to know if his favorite politician will knowingly participate in unlawfully vulnerable elections? Post a name, I'll ask the right questions - and I am cynically convinced there isn't a politician in Texas who will lift a finger to even investigate the situation.

Here's a couple off the top of my head - my legislative representation, Kyle Kacal and Charles Schwertner.
