Redistricting between the primary and general elections means some voters might not have had a say in who’s on the ballot.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rebuked a lower court’s 2025 ruling that struck down nine provisions of a sweeping election law related to voter assistance.

Secretary of State Robert Howden said in a Monday court filing he will defend the current law but that state lawmakers “can and will” choose whether to change it.

Experts say a hyperpartisan environment can erode trust in independent election administration.

The state said any voters removed even though they had already provided citizenship documentation to DPS should be restored to the voter roll.

Howden’s appointment follows weeks of speculation over who would take over running Texas’ elections before the November midterms.

Secretary of State Jane Nelson wrote a letter to federal immigration officials in April after the SAVE program incorrectly flagged U.S. citizens .

A judge blocked states’ use of the revamped SAVE immigration database to find potential noncitizen voters, but it won’t halt ongoing investigations.

Some lawmakers pressured the Texas Secretary of State’s Office to fix problems with the state-wide voter registration system ahead of the midterm election.

Several states have used the revamped database to verify voters’ citizenship, but the judge said this threatened their privacy and voting rights.

Gov. Greg Abbott said he wants lawmakers to take action to allow only registered Republicans to vote in Republican primaries

A law written to allow state oversight in Harris County is allowing state officials to fix problems in a small county along the Rio Grande.

Some local officials say a new chief state election official this summer could complicate preparations at a busy time.

Nelson was the state’s top election official for three years.

County officials found that hundreds of the flagged voters registered through DPS, which requires proof of citizenship

The ruling weakened a key Voting Rights Act provision that’s driven change to election systems and local district boundaries across the state for decades.

The section of the act that the Supreme Court weakened changed how Texas drew its political maps and empowered voters and candidates of color.

Local political parties have control, taxpayers foot the bill, and voters have little recourse, but lawmakers are unlikely to change Texas’ current primary election system.

The lawsuit asks a court to set aside an agreement to use countywide voting sites on May 26.
