Senator Birdwell (R-Granbury) introduced a motion to dismiss Articles 11, 12, 13, and 14. The motion passed by a vote of 19 to 11.

ORIGINAL STORY FOLLOWS:

The 30 voting senators serving as jurors in the two-week impeachment trial deliberated on Friday and Saturday morning before announcing their are ready to return to deliver their decisions. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who is the presiding officer over the trial, announced the senators would be returning to the floor at 10:30 CDT to deliver their verdicts.

— Office of the Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick (@LtGovTX) September 16, 2023

On Friday, Patrick read the rules for voting. The senators will be required to vote on each of the 16 articles individually by writing their vote on a slip of paper. The clerk will draw the votes in a random order and read them aloud. Following the reading, Patrick will poll the senators individually to confirm their votes. Each senator will rise and announce “Yea” or “Nay.”

A “Yea” vote of 21 senators is required to sustain the article of impeachment. If they senators sustain the article, they will be required to make an additional vote on whether Mr. Paxton should be barred from ever holding public office in the future. A “Nay” vote will indicate an acquittal of the individual article.  Only one “conviction” is required to remove the AG. The process will repeat for each of the 16 Articles of Impeachment being considered.
