Beto O’Rourke addresses the crowd during a “Voting Rights and Demoracy Rally” in Beaumont Wednesday. O’Rourke and others spoke to the need to get out the vote and rally at the grass roots level to defeat the bills which would place restrictions on voter registration and elections in Texas, which already has some of the most restrictive voting measures in place in the country.
