🚨 REPUBLICAN VOTERS: OPEN ZOOM TOWN HALL TODAY 🚨

Chairman (and purported candidate) Abraham George and (purported) Vice Chair candidate Amanda Hopper (wife of House Rep. Andy Hopper) will be hosting an open Zoom Town Hall today, June 6, at 5:00 PM.

If you care about election integrity, party governance, transparency, or the ongoing Rule 41 eligibility dispute, this is your opportunity to ask questions directly and hear the answers firsthand.

RSVP: https://forms.gle/uzcZSx54KB5GsQkk6

One question we hope will be addressed publicly:

Will you, or will you not, provide an official and public clarification of the date calculation used for determining compliance with Rule 41’s requirement that candidates file “at least ten (10) days prior” to the first General Session of the State Convention?

Regardless of anyone’s position on the issue, delegates, and all Texas Republicans, deserve transparency, a clear explanation, and a publicly stated interpretation of the rule.

Register. Attend. Ask questions. Stay informed.

Event Address: Zoom link provided at RSVP

**When a Counting Rule Rewrites an Eligibility Requirement**

One of the most fundamental principles of textual interpretation is that procedural rules exist to implement substantive requirements—not to alter them.

That principle matters because sometimes a general counting provision can be applied in a way that changes the meaning of the very rule it is supposed to administer.

The Republican Party of Texas Rules provide:

“To be eligible, candidates for the office of State Chairman or Vice Chairman shall be required to file a statement of intent to run with the SREC Secretary at least ten (10) days prior to the first General Session of the State Convention.”

Notice the operative language:

“To be eligible”

and

“at least ten (10) days prior.”

This is not merely a scheduling provision.

It is an eligibility requirement.

The rule does not say:

“File on the tenth calendar day.”

The rule does not say:

“File no later than June 1.”

The rule says:

“at least ten days prior.”

The ordinary meaning of “at least” establishes a minimum threshold.

The ordinary meaning of “ten days” is ten days.

If the first General Session begins on June 11, then ten days prior is June 1 at 12:00 a.m.

A filing submitted at June 1, 9:43 p.m. is not ten days prior.

It is approximately 218 hours prior.

Ten days equals 240 hours.

218 hours does not equal 240 hours.

Therefore, the filing is not “at least ten days prior.”

The analysis could end there.

The Role of Rule 1(g)

Some point to Rule 1(g), which provides:

“When computing any period of days referred to in these Rules, the first (1st) day is excluded and the last day is included.”

But that raises a deeper question:

What is Rule 1(g) computing?

If Rule 41 establishes an eligibility requirement of ten days, then Rule 1(g) cannot be interpreted in a manner that reduces the requirement itself.

A counting rule may determine how a period is measured.

A counting rule may not reduce ten days to less than ten days.

Otherwise the counting rule ceases to be procedural and becomes substantive.

And once a procedural rule changes the substantive requirement, the substantive rule has effectively been rewritten.

The Consequence of the Contrary Interpretation

Under the contrary interpretation, a filing made late in the evening on June 1 is deemed timely because June 1 is counted as the “tenth day.”

But that filing is not ten days prior.

It is not even nine and one-half days prior.

The phrase:

“at least ten days prior”

has been transformed into:

“sometime during the tenth calendar day.”

Those are not the same requirement.

One is a minimum elapsed-time requirement.

The other is a calendar-counting convention.

The text adopted by the Party chose the former.

It did not choose the latter.

Text Must Control

Textual interpretation begins with the words adopted.

The words adopted were:

“at least ten (10) days prior.”

The rule did not say:

“on or before the tenth day.”

The rule did not say:

“ten calendar days counting under Rule 1(g).”

The rule said:

“at least ten days prior.”

When the application of a general counting rule produces a result that is objectively less than ten actual days before the event, the counting rule is no longer administering the eligibility requirement.

It is altering it.

And textual interpretation does not permit a procedural rule to rewrite a substantive one.

Everyone sees the problems from a different angle.

Judicial activists focus on rogue activist courts.
School activists focus on rampant ideological indoctrination and bureaucratic responsibility avoidance.
Anti-sharia activists focus on foreign legal systems subverting our form of government.

But the real issue is the same:

GOVERNMENT ABANDONING THE CONSTITUTION.

The solution is simple:

👉🏻 ONLY the Constitution.

Read the resolution and help move it forward:

The Constitution does not enforce itself. The Sword & Shield Acts establish clear constitutional limits on government power—protecting freedom of conscience while preventing any ideology or belief system from being imposed through taxpayer-funded institutions.

🚨 Election Transparency Notice 🚨

Early voting is underway.

Under Texas law, election judges and clerks are required to be neutral officers of the ballot.

Texas Election Code § 32.054 provides that a person is ineligible to serve as an election judge or clerk in an election if they are employed by an opposed candidate whose name appears on the ballot in that precinct.

Election administration must be neutral.
Transparency protects everyone — regardless of party.

If you personally observe:

• A current campaign employee of any candidate serving as an election judge or clerk
• Political campaign activity occurring inside or near a polling location
• Improper coordination between campaign staff and election officials

Please document what you personally witness:

✔ Location
✔ Date & time
✔ Names (if known)
✔ Photos or video (if lawfully obtained)

And report it to:

📧 [email protected]
📞 903-305-0152

This is not about partisan advantage.

It is about ensuring the law is followed and elections are administered impartially.

We are currently seeking official appointment records from several Counties and will update the public as information becomes available.

Transparency protects voters.
Neutrality protects elections.
