Texas Republicans Face Delegation Split Over Black Voter Support
Texas Republicans prepare for a split delegation as insurgent Black voters threaten to bolt the state convention over candidate preferences. The plan includes a night parade in Fort Worth and delays until after the temporary roll is submitted to the state executive committee. Leaders expect many Black delegates to stay, with Wood favorers claiming fifteen Texas delegates will back Gen Leonard Wood on the first ballot.
