12 Texas Counties Hold More Registered Voters than Adults, Says Study
Breitbart News ^ | 4 Oct 2017 | BOB PRICE

Posted on 10/04/2017 5:26:27 PM PDT by Mr. Mojo

An election integrity law firm put 12 Texas counties on notice “for holding more registered voters than adult residents” during the 2016 Election. If the jurisdictions do not respond to requests for more information and demonstrate that corrective measures in place, they could risk federal lawsuits from the organization.

The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) sent notification letters over the past week to 12 counties scattered across Texas. Those counties are: Loving, Brooks, Irion, McMullen, Kenedy, Jim Hogg, Culberson, Edwards, Roberts, Polk, Kent, and Cottle. The PILF stated the counties’ voter registration rolls show more registered voters than residents of legal voting age (18) during the November 2016 Election.

“In short, your county has significantly more voters on the registration rolls than it has eligible” voters, the letters sent to the counties state. The PILF adds that because of these figures, each county receiving the letter is “in apparent violation of Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act”.

This is not a problem that Texas faces alone. The PILF claims 248 counties in 24 states had similar “bloated” voter rolls late last year. While the study showed that Texas’ inflated voter rolls were found in mostly rural counties, the issue in other states showed up in more urban areas like San Diego and New York City. The report showed large swaths of counties in Kentucky and Michigan as well.

The PILF warns that flaws in voter files can be a precursor to individualized fraud or worse.

Voter Fraud is much more dangerous to the Republic than Bump Stocks.

Virtual voters are becoming one of the democrats most reliable voter groups - right after dead voters.

Haven’t courts stepped in and prevented the purging of voter registration lists of the deceased and those no longer resident?

More registered than eligible would be normal without purging. Aren’t there a number of places with more actual votes than those eligible?

Hilarious! You have to be pretty quick to catch the catch.

This is not “Persons who voted”. This is persons that are registered.

My bet....

The town shrunk or people died. Point is, government is again behind in checking their voter registry.

(Now I will go finish the article to see if I guessed right.)

and this is why the left said TX and GA are in play now. They relied on their voter fraud, but you can bet their voter fraud will double in the next election unless this crap is sorted out.

Loving County has a population of 112 people.

Of those, there may be 70 people eligible to vote.

If there are now 1,650,000 Registered Voters in Loving County, we may have a problem.

Did a little research... and was surprised:

My first thought was that these would be down along the Mexican border where the Democrats are still firmly in the saddle thanks to their dead who only vote a straight Democrat ticket, yet was surprised to see while some were, other were not.

Six of these counties (circle in blue) voted for the Hilderbeast in 2016 while the other half (circle in red) voted for Trump.

Just goes to show you never... ever really know.

They are lax in removing dead people or those that move away is my thought. One of my brothers left Chicago several years ago now, he's still registered to vote here.

BTW your map is of the 1980 election! Shillery didn't win anywhere near that number of counties in Texas. Here's the 2016 map

The left loves big ‘ol bloodbaths like this to push gun control and hide very serious issues like vote fraud that will destroy this country the day President trump is gone and if we don’t stop it with decisive and definitive safeguards.

Sorry, Googled ‘2016 Presidential Vote Texas Counties’ and then images. I copied that map without going to the website to see it was 1980—

So Shillery won 4 of the counties, Brooks, Culberson, Jim Hogg and Kenedy, the other 8 voted for Trump.

All 12 are small counties, I do believe.
