Voter ID bill delayed on technical point of order

A GOP-backed voter ID bill was delayed from House consideration until later this week after a Democrat raised a technical point of order that ended debate on the measure on the House floor Monday. Rep. Patricia Harless, R-Spring, said she hoped to bring the legislation back before the House on Wednesday after corrections are made. The bill is expected to easily pass the House, where Republicans hold a solid majority of seats.]

A legislative analysis of the bill neglected to indicate whether the requirement was six calendar days or six business days to return with the ID.
