Teapot tempest sparks Allen vote dispute in Texas House
State Rep. Joe Allen of Baytown dismissed a Houston Post story as a tempest in a teapot stating a fellow member cast four votes for him from off the floor. He said he clerked three recorded votes and the rest were voice votes on workers compensation, campus riots control, and firearms purchases across states, and he returned home for family reasons. The voting rule bars voting for another, with disciplinary consequences.
