Early voting extended in Bexar County for CD23 election

The Republicans played games by using one set of rules for the CD22 runoff election and a different set for CD23. LULAC may sue to stop the December 12th runoff, because that date is 'Dia de la Virgen de Guadalupe, a major religious holiday for Mexican Catholics'.
Bexar County commissioners on Tuesday added two days of early voting to the runoff in Congressional District 23, agreeing to calls for the move from Democrat Ciro Rodriguez's campaign and a civil rights group.

But Scott Haywood, spokesman for the Texas secretary of state's office, said the commissioners don't have that kind of power — casting doubt on whether people can vote beginning Saturday or will have to wait until Monday.
Can two play?

Help Ciro Rodriguez beat Henry Bonilla. Ciro will represent the people of CD23, not the Republican power interests.
