A Latino civil rights group is taking the state to court on Tuesday over a list of that the Texas Secretary of State claimed to be "non-citizen voters." Lawsuit going before San Antonio judge Suing Secretary of State of "non-citizen voter" list Claim government is attempting to deprive 95,000 people right to vote The League of United Latin American Citizens and representatives of the state will go before a judge in San Antonio. The group filed a lawsuit against Secretary of State David Whitley and Attorney General Ken Paxton. The advocates claim the Texas government is attempting to deprive over 95,000 people of the right to vote in a "non-citizen voter" list that has been called into question. The list included people who already became citizens when they cast their ballot legally. State leaders backed off initial claims that 95,000 registered voters should have been flagged for citizenship review with the voter registration administrators saying they were told by Whitley to remove several categories from the list. Whitley's list of voter suspects is compiled of individuals who were non-citizens at the time they applied for a driver's license or state I-D.

Some may have been identified incorrectly, but we all know the number of illegal votes are high and they are real crimes.

Better to let 1,000,000 vote democrat rather than deprive 1 of voting democrat.
I think that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever read.
People were asked if they are non-citizens, if they answered yes, their voter registrations were to be checked to see if they became citizens before voting.
Since the US treats everyone born in the US as a citizen, how can a non-citizen be anything other than born outside of the US? If the basis of the suit is found valid by a court, then eligibility to vote can NEVER be checked!
The advocates behind this are idiots.
What this article does not say is that they already know over 50,000 of these people already voted in at least one election in the past 20 years.
One line in the article puzzles me too...
- The list included people who already became citizens when they cast their ballot legally. -
“Became citizens when they cast their ballot legally”? Last time I checked that’s not how you become a citizen. Did someone change that last week?
- Advocates claim these citizens are being targeted and removed from voter rolls based solely on the fact that they were born outside the U.S. -
Yep, if you’re born outside the US that means you do not have the right to vote. Now try telling a Democrat that...
The question: Are they attempting to deprive 95,000 criminals who have no business invading our country of the opportunity to vote illegally, or are they attempting to deprive 95,000 eligible voters of the right to vote? All decent people (that is everyone except democrats) approve of stopping illegals and others who are ineligible to vote from voting.
In Denton County, home to UNT and TWU, numerous college students attempted to vote in November USING DRIVER’S LICENSES FROM STATES OTHER THAN TEXAS as ID!
Thus proving at least that UNT and TWU admission criteria are not near high enough...
