In this Feb. 7, 2019 file photo, Secretary of State David Whitley, left, arrives for his confirmation hearing in Austin, Texas, where he addressed the backlash surrounding Texas' efforts to find noncitizen voters on voter rolls.
But there was a catch: As U.S. District Judge Fred Biery said this week, the secretary of state’s numbers were wrong. The episode, and resulting court battle, made Texas the latest state to incorrectly assert that large numbers of noncitizens have cast ballots in U.S. elections. Lawmakers in North Carolina, Florida, Colorado, Indiana and Kansas have launched similar efforts in recent years.Advocates in Texas cheered the ruling.
“Over-the-top pronouncements of widespread voter fraud without a shred of evidence only serve to broadly deter voter participation,” Saenz said. “Texans can and should expect far better of statewide officials, elected and appointed, whose job involves upholding, and not undermining, constitutional democracy.”
So another thing the left doesnt like
This is good .
So a judge meant to holdup the law has said removing the deceased and those who have moved, from ballots is threatening? Where’s the logic in that?
The evil GOPers are just as dirty and corrupt as Trump their fearless King!
Are they 4 real? We’re watching election fraud in real time. It’s astounding.
if the GOP can't get it done, then JudicialWatch will have to step in and sue the state like they did successfully in California
God forbid we block dead people from voting.
Time for the supreme court to once and for all order voter ID to be standard.
I wish someone could get the emails/discussion notes about the GOP strategy to disenfranchise voters.
Sure cause voting is so important that it not be accurate? Huh?
Liberals are so irresponsible. They want to baby people in everything! If you aren’t properly registered, you get removed.
Ongoing voter fraud and gerrymandering in Texas is one of the main reasons Beto ORourke must run for POTUS. There is NO he will he given a fair chance in Texas if he ran for Senate. It would be a trap. BetoORourke TheDemCoalition DrDenaGrayson
Another example of why the federal government needs to take over the election systems nationwide. One set of rules. One set of processes. No more shell games.
voter id is the answer
Too bad Repugnant-cans, what else ya got?
After proof that over 75,000 illegals voted in TX elections, this is something we need to FIGHT for, Texans!

After reading the article it's clear the activist just is an advocate for voter fraud. Progressives are trash.
How many times do Republican/Conservative efforts to violate people’s rights and cheat the people need to get smacked down? What will it take before they learn? Liars, thieves, crooks, and oppressors.
GOP is no longer a political party. It’s a disgracefully corrupt, white collar (anti democracy) “domestic” terrorist organization. Tyranny
Voter fraud is coming....
Those are not legal standards.
It's a good day today for America. It's (another) bad day for the thoroughly corrupt LYING vile GOP .
Hey, JW Retweet THAT. JWbotSelfieRetweet ItISMuellerTime

So the GOP is bad?
The GOP are fascists.... and fascists don't believe in democracy, they don't trust it.
Republicans must be deported
