Texas Supreme Court Sifts Primary Election Funding Issue
The Texas Supreme Court agreed to decide if party primary election costs may be paid from state funds without legislative authorization. Arguments were heard on Monday March 6 with Secretary of State Bob Bullock asserting rulemaking power for primaries and financing. Attorney General Crawford Martin contends only the legislature can fund. The court case also involved mandamus actions against Comptroller Robert Calvert to force payment of two minor election bills. A separate Court of Criminal Appeals ruling found probation cannot be revoked for associating with disreputable persons unless the probationer knew of their friends’ reputations.
