OPINION

REX D. DAVIS, Chief Justice.

A jury convicted Raul Tamez of possession of a deadly weapon in a penal institution. See Tex. Pen.Code Ann. § 46.10(a)(2) (Vernon 1994). The jury found that Ta-mez had been previously convicted of a felony and assessed his punishment at fifteen years. Tamez claims in three issues that the court erred by: (1) overruling his motion to quash the enhancement allegation; (2) limiting his voir dire examination; and (3) denying his request to present a second jury argument following the State’s closing argument. We will affirm.
