The “felons” will probably all vote for the Libertarian.

The “dead” and “duplicates” always vote democrat in TX.

I didn't see any mention of the illegal aliens voter numbers. I know many vote, but I'm assuming they are illegally registered with their drivers licenses and no telling under how many aliases

LBJ would be proud that TX politics hasn’t changed much from his time when the dead elected him.

Since at least 5 of them were Republican voters, this is a bipartisan problem :>)

The Texas senate has a few bleeding heart libs preventing legislation from reaching Perry's desk that would require an id to vote (some bs reasoning about it would cost too much for folks to get an id, it is a "poll" tax, etc. etc.).

Gee, I wonder why the dimocraps would not want such a thing?

More than 49,000 people on the Texas voter registration rolls in May may not have been eligible to vote...23,576 people who were deceased...

Are they sure about the "may" part?..(some of those deceased voters have better turnout than some of the live bodies around here)

I haven’t voted in Texas in 35 years. But since I was a registered Democrat back then, maybe I’m still voting..{{{{{{shudder}}}}}

Even after death liberals are hell bent on supporting the opposition party.

“Like my ole grandpappy from Fort Worth...he voted republican all his life...after that he voted democrat.”

Amazing how dying can change one’s politics in TX. ;-)

Actually, I don’t mean to pick on TX, because this happens in other states as well. If they would just make someone show a photo ID before they vote it would stop all this. However, somehow this is considered to be racist????? Something I could never understand.

2,359 voters with duplicate records

And these have all been prosecuted - and loudly announced so that other double voters will be reluctant.

I know this has happened - I just must have missed it

>>>More than 49,000 ineligible voters on Texas rolls<<<

Issue them drivers licenses; call it a "voter-motor progam" and sell it to the Democrat's as a solution to illegal voting.

What the heck, make them eligible for public office.

When the politicians realize they might lose their gravy train jobs to Pedro, they’ll fix the problem quicker than you can spit!

All you need is a utility bill from a registered voter to vote in Travis County. Someone should collect these for each local office holder and vote on the first day of early voting, so when they show up to vote...

Well, you see, the photos don't properly register certain races, due to the light, and uhm, well, you know, it's just RACIST!
