Many reporters, including me, attempting to listen to federal court hearing on whether to invalidate 127,000 drive-thru votes in Harris County TX

Press line was disconnected with hearing in progress & no reporters let in courtroom. This is huge case & we can't even cover it

I am on the call now. Stand by for updates

I missed beginning of hearing b/c we couldn't listen in but one reporter who got in notes conservative judge seems skeptical of throwing votes out https://twitter.com/ErnestScheyder/status/1323311105104580609

Lawyer for Harris County: drive-thru voting "was all done with consultation" with county officials & state. "None of this was kept secret"

Indeed, TX secretary of state signed off on plan & right-wing plaintiffs only challenged when 1000s had already voted

TX lawyer says he & wife used drive-thru voting on first day of early voting b/c his wife is 35 weeks pregnant and it was safest way to vote in a pandemic

Those challenging drive-thru voting want to "replace the will of the people with a few people who want to throw out votes”
