COLLEGE STATION, Texas — On Thursday, April 1, the Texas Senate signed off on Senate Bill 7.
SB 7 would limit extended early voting hours, prohibit drive-thru voting and make it illegal for local election officials to proactively send applications to vote by mail to voters, even if they qualify.
Kirby Goidel, Texas A&M University Professor of Political Science said some people will say this bill is to make sure voting is fair and that each vote is legally cast.
