Texas says it found 95,000 non-citizens on voter rolls; 58,000 have voted

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced Friday that the state has discovered 95,000 non-citizens on the voter rolls going back to 1996, 58,000 of whom have voted in at least one Texas election  -- an announcement likely to raise fresh concerns about the prospect of voter fraud.

Texas has some of the toughest voter ID laws in the nation and has been one of the main battlegrounds in the Republican-led fight against alleged voter fraud. The office, in a statement, said that 33 people were prosecuted for voter fraud last year, and 97 were prosecuted between 2005-17. There are 16 million people in Texas registered to vote.

POSSIBLE VOTER FRAUD PROBED IN TIGHT HOUSE CAROLINA HOUSE RACE

“Every single instance of illegal voting threatens democracy in our state and deprives individual Texans of their voice,” Paxton said in a statement.

The New York Times reported that the findings were a result of of an 11-month investigation into records at the Texas Department of Public Safety. Gov. Greg Abbott praised the findings and hinted at future legislation to crack down on voter fraud.<

"I support prosecution where appropriate. The State will work on legislation to safeguard against these illegal practices," Abbott tweeted.

TRUMP DISMANTLES VOTER FRAUD COMMISSION

The revelation is likely to have national consequences and stir debate and the role of voter fraud. President Trump created a commission in 2017 to investigate allegations of voter fraud in the 2016 election. But it was eventually dismantled by Trump after the group faced lawsuits, opposition from states and in-fighting among its members.

Trump said at the time that Democrats refused to hand over data “because they know that many people are voting illegally.” Democrats have dismissed claims of voter fraud and accused Republicans of trying to disenfranchise minority voters with tight voter ID laws.

95,000 non-citizen (illegal) voters in Texas, 61% of them have voted illegally.

Naahh! there is no voter fraud! (/sarcasm headshake)

And THIS is only the tip of the actual ComDem Voter fraud.

Many other methods. Vote grave yard, voter harvesting, pack the ballot box. the list is long.

Read the article. Governor Abbott said he would back up prosecution where appropriate. It has already been done. And with great gnashing of ComDem teeth and severe wailing.

Give the Texas government some credit. If it took 11 months to determine this, they have long been seriously working on it.

These criminal voters are being contacted. They have 30 days to show up with proof of their citizenship.

There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth among the Democrat leaders all over the country, because they definitely do not want this sort of investigation to go on in places like CA and NY. They shut down the FL voter fraud investigation because it was “suppressing the vote of the poor.” Yes, it does suppress the vote of the poor illegal aliens who have NO BUSINESS being in this country, much less voting.

They’re just doing the Democrat voting that some Americans refuse to do.
