Note that the Texas Attorney General, in Tex. Att'y Gen. Op. [https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/sites/default/files/opinion-files/opinion/1959/ww-0728.pdf#page=6 WW-728] (1959), opined that: "Article III, Section 13 [] does not make it mandatory that the Governor call a special election to fill a vacancy in the Legislature within any specified time after the vacancy occurs, but Section 32 of the Texas Election Code [] makes it his duty to call the election immediately. However, the word 'immediately' is flexible when considered against a particular situation." | |||
