   AUSTIN, Texas -- Country music legend Willie Nelson led more   
   than a thousand spectators in singing “vote them out” Saturday   
   from the steps of the Texas Capitol during a rally wrapping up a   
   four-day march in support of Democratic state legislators who   
   bolted for Washington two weeks ago to block GOP-backed voting   
   restrictions.   
      
   Families with lawn chairs spread out across the sprawling   
   Capitol greens in Austin. Clergy, politicians, constituents and   
   musicians all spoke out about the proposals to impose voter ID   
   requirements, limit ballot drop boxes and mail voting, and strip   
   local officials of their election authority.   
      
   The special session that the exodus by Texas Democrats halted is   
   set to expire next week, but Republican Gov. Greg Abbott has   
   pledged to schedule a new one as soon as the lawmakers return to   
   the state.   
      
   “If you don’t like who's in there, vote them out,” Nelson sang,   
   inviting he crowd to join him in singing lyrics he'd previously   
   written about taking a stand at the ballot box.
