Do you remember the viral video exchange between Ken Paxton and Steven Bannon in which Paxton claimed Biden would have won Texas in 2020 if it wasn’t for his meddling?

This video:

Paxton claimed that “Liberal Judges” were sending out mail-in voting applications during the worst pandemic in our lifetimes, and he had to sue them to stop it from happening, including 2.5 mail-in voting applications in Harris County. Paxton claimed that Trump would have lost Texas if it hadn’t been for his lawsuits.

The State of Texas v. Chris Hollins - outcome.
The Republican-majority Texas Supreme Court heard the lawsuit, Texas v. Hollins. The court ruled that Texas law does not grant county officials the authority to send out mail-in ballot applications without a voter request.

The ruling emphasized that voting by mail in Texas is restricted to specific categories of voters, such as those over 65 or those with a disability. The court found that Hollins’ plan to send applications to voters who may not qualify would disrupt the uniformity of election procedures across the state.
