A court found “clear and convincing evidence” of more illegal votes cast in a contested Brownsville ISD race than the margin of victory.

Amid a statewide campaign to halt voter fraud, a 2020 South Texas school board election has been overturned due to “repeated mistakes” by local elections officials that allowed illegal votes to be counted. *** Marisa Leal, who was originally declared the winner by one vote, contested the results after a recount found her opponent, incumbent Minerva Peña, won by eight votes. *** Following a hearing last month, visiting District Judge Joel Johnson found at least 24 illegal votes were cast in the election—more than enough to invalidate the election results. Among the illegal votes were 16 mail-in ballots cast in the names of people who were all registered at the address of an uninhabited commercial warehouse. *** It’s also impossible to determine who actually marked the illegal ballots, since the address on them was false and no voter ID number was required on the applications or ballots (though last year’s election integrity law Senate Bill 1 now requires ID numbers on mail ballots). ***

In addition, three voters testified (and polling place documents confirmed) they were assisted when voting at the polls in the school board election, even though they weren’t eligible to receive assistance. Two other voters had family members mark their ballots or tell them how to vote, and three mail ballots were returned without a signature on the carrier envelope, making them all not countable.

***

Curiously, Leal’s lawyer is Gilberto Hinojosa, who in the past has defended candidates against voter fraud charges. The attorney is also chairman of the Texas Democrat Party, which denies voter fraud is a problem and opposes voter ID and other ballot security measures. ***

The Democrat Party, engaging in election fraud since the 1850s.

Neither party sees anything wrong with this.

Big money has owned American politics for well over a century.

So, we are expected to believe that the people who would cheat in a school board election, would not cheat in a presidential election.

The typical Republican is happy to let the rats cheat for seats and win the ideological battles as long as they’re allowed to keep their personal sinecures.

It's all just a big club and

YOU AIN'T IN IT!!

Oh stop, that can’t be true...

No evidence has been found of any election fraud in 2020.

Beginning to sound a lot like the COVID-19 excuses.

So what are they going to do with all this found fraud, it’s all over different states that I’ve seen.

Would this also be enough to overturn a city election ? a county election ? a state election ?
How about a Presidential election?

I found a local blog about this issue. For those who don’t know how the folks of Cameron County roll, the comments section is a hoot. https://rrunrrun.blogspot.com/2020/11/30000-for-pena-leal-recount-to-be-paid.html
