County Dems pass resolution seeking to bar secessionists

BOERNE — The Kendall County Democratic Party March 8 passed a resolution that asks the Texas Legislature to amend the Texas Election Code to include a statement on the candidate application that the applicant will not “directly or indirectly support or advocate in favor of any effort on the part of the state of Texas to secede, separate or otherwise withdraw from the United States.”

The resolution also states that the TEC should specify that “if the candidate application is false at the time of the submission or becomes false at any time after it is submitted, the candidate is not qualified to appear on any ballot for a state or county office.”

This resolution will be presented to delegates at the KCDP county convention March 23 for approval, then sent to the Texas Democratic party for consideration and adoption at the state convention in June.
