Federal judge orders Texas officials to comply with National Voter Registration Act
By J. Edward Moreno - 01/30/20 07:32 PM EST A federal judge in San Antonio on Thursday ordered the Texas Department of Public Safety to register three voters based on their online driver’s license address.
Lawyers for Jarrod Stringer, the lead plaintiff in the suit, argued that Texas was violating the National Voter Registration Act, which requires states to allow eligible voters to complete voter registration when they obtain or renew their driver's license.
The ruling from U.S. District Court Judge Orlando Garcia, a Clinton appointee, requires the state to allow the voters to register by Monday, Feb. 3, the deadline to register to vote in the March 3 state primary.
