Texas has voter id, which discourages the "vote early, vote often" approach that many Democrats appear to prefer.

You said illegals were not voting.....I just showed you they are. Doesn't matter in what percentage, the fact they can vote at all is disturbing enough.

Along with releasing 30,000 illegals into the USA........wonder if these are the new voters for 2016???

Well that is quite the myth you believe in. If one votes early, then one only gets the one vote.

Oh and I guess you should inform your fellow right winger I was commenting on about this news because they seem to think an ID isn't required at the polls in Texas to catch those non existing in person illegal voters.

Something the Dems hate! Wonder if President Obama knows with mandatory voting would come voter ID, another thing Dems don't want to happen.

Your link didn't show that they were voting, it showed that they might be voting with no proof to back it up. We vote by mail in Oregon and don't have any issue with illegal voters, what is your state's excuse?

Voter ID is alive and well in Texas. It was used in the November elections last year. Anyone who believes otherwise is mistaken.

You just said Texas didn't require a photo ID to vote in person, you need to make up your mind, which is it?

How much do actual voters know about candidates and issues?

I live in Colorado and vote by mail.

Every mail-in ballot is logged when it is mailed out and logged again when it is received by the county clerk's office.
As we have technology and stuff, voters can opt to track their ballots online.
I knew exactly when to expect it in my mailbox and I knew when it was received and counted after I mailed it back.

Welcome to the 21st century.
