Austin (WBAP/KLIF) – A controversial voting reform bill was passed by the Texas House a little before midnight Thursday night. That’s the measure Democratic members blocked for weeks by leaving the state in protest. The House will take a final vote on the measure Friday. then the Senate, which has already passed its own version, will either agree with any changes the House may have made, or request a conference committee to work out a compromise. The current, second, special session of the Legislature is due to adjourn in a little more than a week.
