The adjutant general of the Texas Army National Guard said there are no plans to dispatch troops to polling locations in Texas, after a news report Monday said the guard would deploy up to 1,000 troops to five cities, including Austin, in conjunction with the Nov. 3 election.

 

“The Texas National Guard continues to support DPS guarding historical landmarks such as the Alamo and the State Capitol,” Maj. Gen. Tracy Norris said in a statement Monday evening. “To be clear, there has been no request nor plan to provide any type of support at any polling location in Texas.”

 

A spokesman for Gov. Greg Abbott referred questions to the National Guard.

 

Norris’ statement came hours after the San Antonio Express-News reported that the Texas National Guard would dispatch troops to Austin, Dallas, Houston, Fort Worth and San Antonio as soon as this weekend.”
