James O'Keefe's Project Veritas released undercover video Tuesday of a Texas poll worker admitting that "tons" of non-citizens are being allowed to vote.
In the video (embedded below), a woman tells two Travis County poll workers that her boyfriend, a DACA recipient, is in the car because he is nervous about not being able to vote. She let's both poll workers know that the boyfriend is not a citizen.
"If he has his ID that's all he needs — if he's registered," the first election worker reassures the Project Veritas journalist.
"It doesn't matter that he's not a citizen?" the journalist asks clearly.
"No, Don't pay any attention to that. Bring him up here," the election worker says.
When the journalist tells a second election official that her boyfriend is DACA recipient and worried about his being allowed to vote, the poll worker dismisses all her concerns. "Uh, uh," she replies reassuringly. "From early voter — we've got tons of them."
"Tons of DACA voters?" the journalist asks.
The woman answers in the affirmative.

In a tweet Tuesday, Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX), who was also safely re-elected Tuesday, responded to the video, "I can't verify if this is accurate. I CAN verify that it will be investigated and if it IS accurate, illegal votes will be tossed out and wrongdoers will be prosecuted."
The Texas attorney general, Jeff Mateer, also said he would look into it.
Travis County chief deputy clerk Ronald Morgan Jr., however, wants legal action taken against James O'Keefe and Project Veritas and has referred the journalists to the district and county attorney's offices.

Completely typical proglib speech.
Now we know the criteria for the selection of the poll-workers.
Their willingness to commit the fraud.
Save the speeches for Jeff Mateer, Texas’ first assistant attorney general Mr Morgan.
.
WOW!. This is EXPLOSIVE! It’s a BOMBSHELL!
Someone let me know when something is actually done about it.
Should be easy to verify, If I.d. were checked and granted access. The part that maybe hard to prove Is citizenship. It may be difficult for poll worker’s to handle. However, I do not see why Political Parties could not be fined when their own members vote illegally
We give up, we surrender...
Is this the new freep motto?
Texas is gone to democrats? I’d wager Texans (sans Austin) may disagree.
Can we please stop being so pessimistic? Where is the faith in each other? When uou are tempted to post an “i give up post”, pause and know that we have more on our side than not...God goes exist...invite his help before posting surrender...
News flash, they didn’t try to hide it on November 6, 2018, nor in 2016. Voter fraud was also used in early voting; count on it.
Complaints about possible violations of the federal voting rights laws can be made directly to the Civil Rights Division’s Voting Section in Washington, D.C. by phone at 1-800-253-3931 or (202) 307-2767, by fax at (202) 307-3961, by email to voting.section@usdoj.gov or by complaint form at http://www.justice.gov/crt/complaint/votintake/index.php.
United States Attorney Brian J. Kuester concluded, “Ensuring free and fair elections depends in large part on the cooperation of the American electorate. It is imperative that those who have specific information about discrimination or election fraud make that information available immediately to this Office, the FBI, or the Civil Rights Division.”
Travis County chief deputy clerk Ronald Morgan Jr., however, wants legal action taken against James O’Keefe and Project Veritas and has referred the journalists to the district and county attorney’s offices.
Lets not worry about crimes being committed. Lets worry about getting caught. I’m sure the people of Travis County are proud that an elected official is more worried about being exposed than following the law.
Can any Texan’s on here advise if there is an eavesdropping law? Is Texas a one-party state when it comes to recording conversations?
I hope the the State Attorney General is sending some folks to pay the clerk and Travis Cty DA a visit.
For later
The media has been blowing fake sunshine up the skirts of Left wing causes for so long that people, through the sheer repetition, get worn down and think this is right.
The first thing modern progressivism does is try to convince people to pull up anchor and be swept along with the flow, to get along and be nice. Only later does it get them to throw their anchors away so that they have no option but get helplessly and mindlessly pulled along by everything the avant-garde and socialists claims is progress.
In the end, the tyranny of feelings, of wanting to be accepted by the great and the good as they fancy themselves, will pull people to places they never imagined they’d go.
Only in the minds of liberals do proverbial icebergs only exist as the tiny visible bit above the waves. At least when they are being accused.
How many voters equal one ton?
WHY hasn’t that man been ARRESTED??
It's more than just Austin. Every major metropolis in Texas is under Democrat control. Beto came within striking distance of Ted Cruz, and he didn't even run as a fake "Texas" Democrat "I love me some red meat and guns!" Beto ran as a full-blown San Fransisco Leftist.
People who don't see Texas turning purple aren't paying attention. They're going to be shocked when Texas helps put a Democrat in the White House. Better to recognize reality now while we can address it rather than burying our heads in the sand and pretending it isn't happening.
“If he has his ID that’s all he needs — if he’s registered,” the first election worker reassures”
This is why especially Democrat and a large number of Republican leaders want amnesty.
They know the voter registration is corrupt and granting amnesty to non-citizens is the way to clean up the corrupt voter registration system in one easy step.
My county asks prospective jurors (online screening) about citizenship.
Not to mention our country.
And yet the poll workers are still walking free and no charges will EVER be filed.
They know they will get away with it so they continue to do it. Why wouldn’t they?
If you can register online, you don’t even have to look someone in the eye while you are fraudulently registering. Is True-The-Vote looking into this? I had hopes that they would have made a dent in the illegal voting by 2018. I guess not.
“Arrest, prosecute, incarcerate.”
You forgot to add DEPORT!
Wanna stop illegal immigration? Start tattooing them. 1st offense, a small mark behind their ear. For each subsequent incursion into our country, start tattooing the word DEPORTED on their forehead, one letter for each time they return.
Of course I realize my methodology won’t work for MS13 as you need a vacant parcel of skin on your face, but we can find a different approach for them.....
The technology already exist that employers can ID.
Perhaps their should be a database available at some government office..for employers and even landlords.
And voting,too!
