A Texas judge has dismissed voter fraud charges against Hervis Rogers, the Houston man who drew national attention– – and praise– – for waiting seven hours in line to vote in the March 2020 presidential primary.
Rogers, who is Black, became a symbol of tenacity when news of the circumstances surrounding his voting experience surfaced. He stuck around– – despite working two jobs, including one beginning at 6am– – and was among the last, potentially the last, Texas resident to vote, according to KERA news.
