    State tells counties to reinstate some voters flagged as possible noncitizens

    The Texas Tribune and Votebeat reported that on July 29, 2026 the Secretary of State's elections director told county officials to reinstate some voters incorrectly flagged as potential noncitizens through the federal SAVE program, after the state compared DPS records for some of the 2,724 registered voters flagged. The report says the state could not yet say how many registrations had been canceled. A Secretary of State press release of September 15, 2026 states that the review found 578 of the 2,724 voters demonstrated citizenship, 506 of them because passport information was added to SAVE after the first run, and that the office "advised counties to reinstate these registrations if they were removed."

Chief Justice Blacklock wrote that "the Texas Constitution's internal political remedies, none of which involve the judicial branch, were sufficient to the task of restoring the House's ability to do business," and that "we decline to exercise discretionary jurisdiction over the petitions for writ of quo warranto, which are denied." Justice Sullivan filed a concurring opinion and Justice Hawkins did not participate.

    Damon Johnson and other Prairie View A&M University students and a student organization sued Waller County on October 22, 2018, the first day of early voting, saying the county gave the campus fewer early voting hours than other areas. The Commissioners Court met on October 24, 2018 and extended hours near campus and added Sunday hours at Prairie View City Hall. After a bench trial, Judge Charles Eskridge issued findings on March 24, 2022 that plaintiffs "didn't establish that the early voting schedule adopted and implemented by Waller County during the 2018 general election violated the Voting Rights Act or was otherwise unconstitutional," and entered final judgment for the county on April 14, 2022. The court also recited that the county tax assessor barred students from voting in 1971, that Prairie View students were indicted for illegal voting in 1992 and the charges were dropped after a Justice Department protest, and that in 2003 a district attorney made statements reasonably perceived as threats to prosecute students.

    Texas Supreme Court lets Harris County keep 10 drive-thru voting sites

    On October 22, 2020, in In re Hotze (No. 20-0819), the Texas Supreme Court denied the petition for writ of mandamus and motion for stay filed by the Harris County Republican Party and others to stop the county's drive-thru voting. Justice Devine dissented from the order, writing that county election officials possess only powers "granted in express words" or "necessarily or fairly implied in an express grant." The Texas Tribune reported that the court acted without an order or opinion and that the challenge concerned the county's 10 drive-thru polling locations.

    Texas Supreme Court bars Harris County from mailing ballot applications to all registered voters

    On October 7, 2020, in State v. Hollins (No. 20-0729), the Texas Supreme Court wrote: "We hold that the Election Code does not authorize an early-voting clerk to send an application to vote by mail to a voter who has not requested one and that a clerk's doing so results in irreparable injury to the State." It reversed the court of appeals and remanded for entry of a temporary injunction prohibiting the Harris County Clerk from mass-mailing unsolicited ballot applications. The Texas Tribune reported that the clerk had planned to send applications to all 2.4 million registered voters in the county, and that the State had sued in August.

Justice Rehnquist, joined by the Chief Justice, dissented, describing the judgment as one "enjoining appellant Symm, the Tax Assessor-Collector and ex officio voting registrar of Waller County, Tex., from using a certain questionnaire designed to aid Symm in determining whether persons registering to vote in Waller County are bona fide residents."

    On February 16, 1978, in United States v. State of Texas (Civ. A. No. 76-H-1681), a three-judge court in Houston reviewed the questionnaire that Waller County Tax Assessor-Collector Leroy Symm, who was also the voting registrar, required of some people applying to register, including Prairie View A&M University dormitory students. The court wrote that Symm's "forthright admission that he has, for many years, applied the unconstitutional presumption of Whatley establishes that the plaintiff is entitled to relief against Symm," and directed counsel to prepare "a detailed injunction." It denied relief against the Waller County commissioners on that record, with leave to reopen the record, and found none appropriate against the State of Texas, the Secretary of State or the Attorney General.

    On October 23, 2026, the plaintiffs in DSCC v. Trump (No. 1:26-cv-03674-JEB, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia) filed a motion for expedited discovery. The plaintiffs are the DSCC, the DCCC, the Democratic Governors Association, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem S. Jeffries, the Nevada State Democratic Party and Erick Jose Jimenez. The motion asks for all non-privileged communications the defendants have sent since July 1, 2026 to state or local election officials demanding or requesting that they remove specific registered voters from statewide lists, refuse ballots to specific voters, or set aside or not count ballots returned by specific voters, plus answers to interrogatories. It says the plaintiffs are "seriously contemplating" a request for emergency relief before the November 3 election, and cites an October 21, 2026 order allowing narrow expedited discovery in NAACP v.

Mullin (No. 4:26-cv-10680), a suit by the California Nurses Association, National Nurses United, the City and County of San Francisco, the County of Santa Clara and the Voto Latino Foundation. The order says that in August 2026 the Department of Homeland Security started an "Unlawful Voter Initiative" that had Citizenship and Immigration Services build lists of people to investigate, and that an August 31 guidance told agents to prioritize field questioning about voter eligibility in California, Connecticut, Georgia, Missouri, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington and Wisconsin. The court enjoined the department from election-related field operations and interviews in those nine states that involve people it knows, suspects or should reasonably suspect are U.S. citizens, and from field operations there based wholly on records from its voter eligibility matching. The order runs until polls close on November 3, 2026, and was stayed until 5 p.m. on October 23, 2026.

    Justice Department begins notifying counties it wants to monitor on Election Day 2026

    NPR reported on October 21, 2026 that the Justice Department began notifying counties it wants to monitor on Election Day starting Tuesday, October 20. NPR confirmed notices to Adams County, Colorado; seven counties in Texas; King County, Washington; Miami-Dade County, Florida; and Hennepin and Ramsey counties in Minnesota. NPR reports that state officials were at first not notified at the same time as counties, and that a department spokesperson said it prioritizes places with competitive elections and would monitor Adams County because it is covered by Section 203 of the Voting Rights Act. Colorado's Secretary of State's office told NPR it was considering how to respond, since state rules require observers to have its permission unless a court orders otherwise.

The suit names President Trump, the Justice Department, Attorney General Todd Blanche, the Department of Homeland Security and Secretary Markwayne Mullin. It asks for an order barring the administration from removing legally registered voters from statewide voter lists or denying ballots to them, and a ruling that the administration illegally threatened state election officials with prosecution. It cites the Justice Department's suit over California mail ballots. The AP reports the case was assigned to Chief Judge James Boasberg and that the Justice Department said its actions are grounded in law.

States Newsroom reported it as the second such suit that month. The groups argue the policy violates the federal law that bars "armed men" at election sites and the Voting Rights Act's bar on intimidation. A Justice Department spokesperson said: "The DOJ has never said it would send federal law enforcement to polling locations." A Homeland Security spokesperson said ICE was not planning operations that targeted polling locations. No ruling is recorded here.

On residence, the notice states that "the Census Bureau proposes to include lawful permanent residents within the apportionment base, while excluding from the apportionment base illegal aliens and aliens whose legal status is less durable and indefinite in length than lawful permanent resident status," and says it is considering using administrative records to determine legal status.

The Court added that its ruling "does not mean that any measure taken by the Government to implement the Order will necessarily be lawful." Justices Sotomayor and Jackson filed dissents.

How this timeline is built

Every entry rests on at least one source that was opened and read, and that source states the date and the fact. Courts, legislatures, election offices, the Justice Department, the Census Bureau, the Federal Register and Congress.gov come first. A news report is used only when no official page states the fact, and it is labeled with the outlet's name. Encyclopedias are not used as sources. History starts in 1965 with the Voting Rights Act. County names come from the Census Bureau's 2024 Gazetteer. Congressional district numbers are those in use for the 2026 election; an event is tagged to a district only when its source names that congressional district.

When a later event changes an earlier one, such as a law later struck down, both entries are listed and point to each other. This page does not predict outcomes or say which party a change helps. U.S. House maps for 2026 · Back to the 2026 voting center.
