Texas Republican party primary propositions

North Texas voters choosing to vote in the Republican primary on March 5 will also be asked to share their opinion on 13 non-binding propositions.

The propositions appear on the Republican ballot only and are not a policy referendum or a vote for a law, but rather a way for the party to gauge voter support for the proposition.

On the Republican ballot, voters are simply asked to answer either Yes or No to the following 13 questions selected by the Republican Party of Texas.

Texas Democrats did not add any propositions to their ballot, so propositions only appear on the Republican ballot.
