Republicans in Texas formally rejected President Joe Biden's election in 2020 as illegitimate and voted in a state-wide convention that wrapped up this weekend on a party platform that calls homosexuality an 'abnormal lifestyle choice.'
“We reject the certified results of the 2020 presidential election, and we hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden junior was not legitimately elected by the people of the US,” the Texas party said in a resolution, passed in a voice vote at its convention.
“Homosexuality is an abnormal lifestyle choice,” it reads, a statement that is not in the 2020 platform. The Log Cabin Republicans of Houston, an organisation that represents LGBTI conservatives, said it was once again denied a request to set up a booth at the party's convention this week, as it has been for past conventions. The group called the Texas Republican Convention's actions “not just narrow-minded, but politically short-sighted.”
