Election Day Nears: Texas Early Vote Ends, Black Men Sit Out, Houston Candidates Push

 

10.30.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: 4 Days to Election Day: Texas Early Vote Ends, Black Men Sit Out, Houston Candidates Push

LIVE from The Branch in Houston, Texas.  Here's what's coming up on Roland Martin Unfiltered, streaming live on the Black Star Network.

IIt's the last day of early voting here in Texas and Georgia.  We are 4 days away from Election Day, and we need that Black tsunami at polls across the nation.

Harris County voters will decide on several races, including attorney general and judges.  We'll talk to a few of the candidates as they make a final push for votes before Tuesday's election. 

A recent study indicates Black men are not voting and are feeling political apathy about elections.  I'll talk to two Black men, including Black Star Network's No Translation Host, Jeff Johnson, about why some men are sitting on the sidelines.
