This goes for any and all parties.
Don't vote for a party that will break a law (and do it openly and willfully).
The Libertarian Party is the only one that put their presidential candidate on the Texas ballot in time, by Texas state law. This is not a new law, not a changed law, not a surprise. The Big Two are just so full of hubris that they never bothered to file on time. The other small parties are accepting a write in candidate position.
If, in the next 68 days, any other party gets on the ballot in Texas, they have broken state law. More than likely, it will be currently sitting judges or lawmakers that allow this...THOSE people should then be removed from their positions immediately.
Don't vote for a party that will support such rampant, blatant, glaring lawbreaking.
