Texas National Guard to send up to 1,000 troops to major cities for support after election

 

Texas Guard spokesman Brandon Jones said troops could be sent to Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio, but that he didn’t know how many guardsmen would be sent to each place.

 

The Texas National Guard plans to send up to 1,000 troops to five cities to support local law enforcement and the Texas Department of Public Safety after the Nov. 3 election, the San Antonio Express-News reported. The troops could be sent as early as this weekend, the outlet reported. Troops are being activated “as we did previously to deter any civil disturbance at sites in various cities within Texas,” Maj. Gen. James K. “Red” Brown, chief of staff for the guard’s commander, told the Express-News. Texas Guard spokesman Brandon Jones told the outlet that troops could be sent to Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio, but that he didn’t know how many guardsmen would be sent to each place. “Right now we could go to 1,000 troops in support of civil disturbance operations,” Jones told the Express-News. “We’re going to guard buildings just like we did during the George Floyd protests earlier this year. We are not going anywhere near polling locations. That has not been requested.”

 

He said he couldn’t speculate whether the mission of the guard would change to include the protection of polling places. “We never make any speculation associated with any possible mission,” he told the outlet. “That’s not what we do. We respond to requests from the governor.” Maj. Gen. Tracy Norris, the guard’s commander, was asked in recent weeks to draft plans in the event of trouble after the election, according to the Express-News. The outlet reported that the National Guard Bureau said that election commissions in other states have asked their governors to request guard help to staff polling locations during the election.

 

In Dallas, National Guard members assisted local authorities in June during protests after the death of George Floyd, a handcuffed black man who died after a police officer knelt on his neck for several minutes. The guard was also deployed to help staff the North Texas Food Bank earlier this year. Gov. Greg Abbott previously requested support from state troopers in Dallas in June of 2019 to help combat a spike in violent crime. Two months later, two Texas DPS troopers fatally shot an armed 27-year-old man 16 times after a traffic stop. The support ended Sept. 1 of that year, and a grand jury declined to indict the two troopers.

There doesn't appear to be stats, just number of cities for deployment, which could be by design..in an effort not to telegraph moves.
