Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare directed meeting attendees to leave the commissioners courtroom Tuesday when some audience members clapped after he instructed them not to.  Lon Burnam, a former state lawmaker representing Tarrant County from 1997 to 2015, was carried out of the courtroom by four sheriff deputies, who held him by his hands and feet.  The removals came more than two hours into Tuesday’s commissioners court meeting, where the majority of speakers were signed up to address the court about a proposed reduction in voting site locations for the November midterm elections.  #tarrantcounty #fortworth #elections #commissioners
