Texas woman facing 5 years in prison for voter fraud speaks out

FORT WORTH, Texas — A woman in Texas was sentenced to return to prison Thursday, because she voted in the 2016 election. She used her real name and identification, but her criminal past made voting a crime.

Crystal Mason still remembers the day she was arrested for voting in the last presidential election.

"My mom kept nagging, 'Go vote, go vote, go vote, go vote' and I was just like OK, I did what she said," Mason said.

The 43-year-old was on supervised release for tax fraud when she cast her ballot. In Texas, that's against the law.

If CBS was looking for sympathy, then she must have voted Democrat.

Is that incorrect? If so, I’ll be surprised.

The media wants felons to vote for the same reason it wants illegals to vote; more Democrats. They know Democrats can’t win without corrupting the process.

It’s not fraud unless she voted for Trump.

Well, she was only 43.

I also have to ask: If she was on supervised release...who was supervising her? Hopefully, not her mom.

Texas' voter rolls are a mess and not much is being done about it.

Not sure what the news is here. She’s a felon and voted. And now she has another felony on her record.

Oh, wait. Enforcing the law is RACIST!!

Were it not for people voting illegally DJT would have received more Electoral Votes than he did and he would have gotten the majority of Popular Votes as well.

No, she was sentenced to RETURN to prison because she broke the law while she was on parole (aka supervised release). She would have been returned to prison for breaking other laws also.

That’s just one. How about solving the mystery behind the voting machine burnings, the machines that flipped votes (happened to hubby) and why were the machines in Austin taken away in the middle of election day?

I’d like to see the FBI or some other law enforcement agency 1,000 randomly selected ballots cast nationwide, just like in a pre-election poll. How many of the corresponding voters were dead, fictional, illegal, deny voting, or voted in more than one jurisdiction? Let’s get an idea of what fraction of ballots are actually fraudulent.
