"Donald Trump's shocking upset emboldens Texas GOP" Including on Voter ID<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=89270>

Texas Tribune:<https://www.texastribune.org/2016/11/09/trumps-impact-texas-gop-unlikely-soon-fade/>

One example? Voter ID. Texas lawmakers are under a court order to fix the state's tough voter ID law when they meet again in January in Austin.
