Texas Standard for October 7, 2016
It’s being called the biggest voter fraud investigation in Texas history – and it’s taking place in an unlikely county. We’ll have the story. Paddling against the stream? As states turn away from corporal punishment in public schools, new research could lead to a rethink here as well. Also: Industrial development in southeast Texas is setting off a political dustup … over dust. Plus: Our weekly roundup of the week in politics with the Texas Tribune and much more. All that and more, on today’s Texas Standard.
