Texas has been doing a lot of good work to track down Voter Fraud - more importantly, they Prosecute it.

Texas Dems ask noncitizens to register to vote, send applications with citizenship box pre-checked |Washington Times - 10/18/18

The Texas Democratic Party asked non-citizens to register to vote, sending out applications to immigrants with the box citizenship already checked “Yes,” according to new complaints filed Thursday asking prosecutors to see what laws may have been broken.

The Public Interest Legal Foundation alerted district attorneys and the federal Justice Department to the pre-checked applications, and also included a signed affidavit from a man who said some of his relatives, who aren’t citizens, received the mailing.

The Texas secretary of state’s office said it, too, had gotten complaints both from immigrants and from relatives of dead people who said they got mailings asking them to register.


Interesting thing about this is the people actually getting these pre-filled out Voter Registrations are turning them in to the State or turning in others they know who got them.

Looks like Illinois is trying it's tricks in Texas - registering Dead People.

Sam Taylor, spokesman for Texas’s secretary of state, said they heard from people whose relatives were receiving mail despite having passed away 10 years ago or longer. One woman said her child, who’d been dead 19 years, got a mailing asking to register.

“It looks like a case of really bad information they are using to send out these mailers,” Mr. Taylor said.
He said some of the non-citizens who called wondered whether there had been some change that made them now legally able to vote despite not being citizens.

They really, really think the laws don't apply to them and they are immune from being held responsible. I hope they all get locked up for many years to rethink their actions.

Texas doesn't even know if this allegation is true - according to your own link.

Well, if they win the house back this November, they're largely correct about that. They're not going to investigate themselves. That the reason they've been so bold about ignoring the rules over the last few years. They really believed they had already achieved their permanent majority, so they'd be able to get away with whatever. They got overeager and jumped the gun, but it's a good sneak preview of what we're going to get when they finally do get their permanent majority. Corruption third world style.

I just posted the information KNOWN at this time -- it's under investigation, as the article clearly states.

Mr. Taylor said there is a state law against encouraging someone to falsify a voter application, but it would be up to investigators to decide if pre-checking a box rose to that level.

Texas has a Voter Fraud Unit and passed new laws increasing the Penalties for Voter Fraud. Senate Bill 5, enacted by the Texas Legislature last session, made it a state jail felony to provide false information on a ballot application or submit an application without a voter’s permission.

From 2005-2017, the attorney general’s office prosecuted 97 defendants for numerous voter fraud violations. This year alone, Attorney General Paxton’s Election Fraud Unit – with assistance from a criminal justice grant from the governor’s office – has prosecuted 33 defendants for a total of 97 election fraud violations. In February, the attorney general announced a significant voter fraud initiative and addressed key problems and policy areas related to election law.

"Bad information?" That's putting it mildly.
