- With Election Day less than a month away, we're taking a look at voter education outreach and the latest in the Texas Governor's race. Political reporter Jack Fink also sits down for one-on-one interviews with the candidates for Tarrant County District Attorney.
After so many mail ballots were rejected in March because they didn't comply with state law, the Texas Secretary of State's Office says it increased its voter education outreach this year. Representatives have traveled across the state in an effort to head off similar problems in the general election.
No matter what happens in November, 2023 will bring a new District Attorney for Tarrant County. Republican Sharen Wilson is retiring after entering office in January 2015. "It's going to encompass a lot of work," she said."It's also going to encompass facilitating relationships between judges, defense attorneys, law enforcement and I think that I'm the right person to get that done."
During their interview, Jack asked both candidates about whether they'd prioritize prosecuting doctors who disobey the recent state law banning most abortions."You have to balance following the law with seeing that justice is done," she said.
