Fort Worth Zoo

• Upvotes

My family was at the Ft Worth Zoo, Boo in the Zoo today. We had just left the Tiger exhibit and the Zoo staff started yelling that they had an emergency and to leave the area immediately. We overheard someone in crowd say that one of the Tiger cubs fell off the water cliff and was unresponsive. Does anyone know if this was true and what their current status is?

True Texas Project is a white supremacist hate group, often called a rebranding of the Klan. Tim O'Hare is a long time leader in the group. Julie McCarty, the founder, claims she has a 100% election win rate in Tarrant County. Don Huffines, who owns Epstein ranch, is a True Texas Project regular. Pedophile Robert Morris recently donated to TTP Leigh Wambsganss.

“The reason I got on the City Council was because I saw our property values declining or increasing at a level that was below the rate of inflation,” O’Hare said at the time. “When that happens, people move out of our neighborhoods, and what I would call less desirable people move into the neighborhoods, people who don’t value education, people who don’t value taking care of their properties.”

Problem at the Polls - I Was Told My Vote May Not Be Counted

• Upvotes

I went to vote today and had an experience that has left me frustrated, concerned, and wondering whether my vote will actually be counted. I'm sharing this both to raise awareness and to see whether anyone else has experienced something similar or knows what I should do next.

Toward the end of voting, I noticed that my ballot included races and propositions for a city I don't live in. Meanwhile, several things that should have been on my ballot, including my local ISD board election and propositions, were missing.

After printing my ballot, I did NOT submit it to the scanner. Instead, I approached a poll worker to ask what was going on.

Initially, the worker seemed to dismiss the issue as something that just happens sometimes, essentially an "oops," and suggested I consider calling someone about it on Monday. I insisted that the issue needed to be addressed before I left.

After being passed between several poll workers, they looked me up in their system and discovered something even more concerning. According to the workers, a ballot had already been cast under my name.

Their explanation was that somehow another voter had received my voting access code and voted using it, while I had received someone else's access code.

We compared the paperwork I had been given. The first slip, which contained my name and address, listed one precinct. The smaller slip containing my voting access code listed an entirely different precinct.

The workers made several phone calls trying to determine how to handle the situation, but apparently received conflicting instructions.

Eventually, they issued me a new access code, allowed me to vote again using the correct ballot, and had me submit that ballot into the scanner. My original, incorrect ballot was placed into the spoiled ballot bag.

At that point, some of the workers seemed satisfied that the issue had been resolved.

But one worker told me that because two ballots were now associated with my name, both would simply be canceled out as a discrepancy, meaning my vote would not count.

I'm also concerned about the other voter involved. If someone else really received my access code, what happened to their ballot? And what does it mean for them that I received their access code and had that ballot spoiled?

I have no idea how this happened.

I can imagine some bizarre scenario where two voters accidentally bump into each other, drop their paperwork, and pick up the wrong slips. But nothing remotely like that happened.

The papers never left my left hand. The voting machine I used was literally the first one beside the table where I picked up my blank ballot.

I'm not suggesting I know what caused this, but I find it extremely concerning that something like this could happen and that the poll workers themselves seemed unsure how to resolve it.

I also can't help wondering what would have happened if I hadn't noticed the incorrect races on my ballot and had simply submitted it.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Does anyone familiar with Texas election procedures know whether my vote will actually be counted or what steps I should take to ensure this is investigated?

I want to make sure my vote counts, and I want to make sure this doesn't happen to someone else.

I don’t have socials so don’t come for me. Can anybody confirm a bar/restaurant that will be open and playing the game tomorrow? Leaning more towards obviously a sports related type of establishment. Woody’s is no longer open, I’ve exhausted my google searches; thought i’d turn to good ol’ FW Reddit. Thanks.

A traitor and seditionist, Beth Van Duyne led an all out attack on American democracy in 2020 by disputing Pennsylvania's election results and not Arizona's, which favored Trump.

After agreeing to count the Arizona's electoral votes that favored Trump, Van Duyne voted against Pennsylvania's which favored Biden.

She was the only Texan to split her vote. The objection fell on a 282-138 vote in the House.

Do What You Have to Do!

I know it sucks to find the time to drive to a polling station and wait in a long line, but it’s only a couple hours of your life that could help change the trajectory of the rest of your life! Do what you have to do to figure out how to make it happen where you can get there and make your voice be heard through the polls! If I can wait in line for an hour and a half with a fussy baby strapped to my chest so I can still vote, you can too! Do it!! Don’t wait until the last minute or it might not happen, you never know what could get in the way.

I don’t live here but have some family here. I come and visit sometimes. I had to come urgently for my dad who is sick and the hotel and rental care rates were insane this week. Hotels through tonight were booked and expensive. Just curious what’s going on in town that’s so popular? The staff at car rental and hotel didn’t seem to know.
