Texas Governor Orders 1000 Troops To Cities During Election

[MySanAntonio.com] Election Day security update: Maj. Gen. James K. "Red" Brown, chief of staff for the Texas National Guard commander, said the activation of troops would be for "post election" support of local law enforcement and the Texas Department of Public Safety, "as we did previously to deter any civil disturbance at sites in various cities within Texas."

Guard troops ordered to S.A.: The Texas Army National Guard said Monday it had been ordered to dispatch 1,000 troops to five major cities around the state in conjunction with the Nov. 3 election, including San Antonio. The guard in recent weeks had told the San Antonio Express-News that its commander, Maj. Gen. Tracy Norris, had been asked to draft contingency plans in case of trouble at polling places in major cities around the state.

#1 Dem areas: Austin of course (nutbag central), Houston until you get to the northern and western suburbs, central San Antonio (suburbs are military and conservative thanks to Ft Sam, Lackland AFB, Kelly), and to a lesser extent Dallas (mainly central-downtown and a bit of Fort Worth).

Backing up the Texas Rangers I guess.

#2 If I remember right there's less than 100 Texas Rangers, so local LEO's would benefit.

#3 Then there is the Texas State Guard . Not too many but they are mostly present and former police and they can deputize. Formed up during WW II when the National Guard was sent overseas and Texas didn't have a force to send into disaster areas to prevent looting and such.

One hundred Rangers, one hundred riots.
