SAN ANTONIO — Raids on the homes of several Democrats in South Texas, in what the state attorney general said is an ongoing election integrity investigation, has set off a showdown with the nation’s oldest Latino civil rights group.
The Aug. 20 raids targeted Manuel Medina, chair of the Tejano Democrats, several members of the League of United Latin American Citizens, a state House candidate and a local area mayor.
The raids have triggered outrage and accusations of voter suppression in a state with a long history of discrimination against its citizens of Mexican descent, which gave rise to LULAC in 1929.

“This is point blank voter intimidation, and LULAC will fight for the right of every Latino to exercise the right to vote,” said Roman Palomares, LULAC's national president.
A copy of a wide-ranging search warrant left with one of the people targeted, LULAC volunteer Lidia Martinez, 87, of San Antonio, offered a window into the investigation’s interests. The warrant ordered the seizure of all electronic devices at her home, allowed for the opening of documents that were business-, organization- or election-related, and authorized swabbing for DNA. According to the warrant, the purpose of the search was to look for evidence of violations of the Texas election laws regarding vote harvesting and identity fraud.

In his filing requesting the injunction, Medina's attorney said authorities seized almost 65 cell phones and 41 computers, digital and other storage devices, papers, documents and family and other photographs.

“Governor Greg Abbott Purges Over a Million Voters From Texas Voter Rolls, Including Thousands of Noncitizens”
“Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott announced Monday that his state has purged more than one million ineligible voters from voter rolls in the past several years, including thousands of noncitizens.
Since the Republican governor signed Senate Bill 1 into law in September 2021, Texas officials have removed more than 1.1 million people from state voter rolls, according to a press release from the governor’s office. The number includes hundreds of thousands of deceased individuals, hundreds of thousands on the suspense list and more than 100,000 individuals who failed to respond to an address confirmation notice, among other people who were deemed ineligible.
The purge also included more than 6,500 noncitizens who had managed to be included on the voter rolls, according to the governor.”
Al fin! Conservative Hispanics like me have been saying this was going on for years, and now we are proven right-thank you, gov Abbot. Hey, Lulac-vete a la chin***!!

I’ve noticed that Paxton is usually pretty sure of his facts before he takes action. I have a feeling that this case may lead him down a rabbit warren of election fraud committed by both American citizens and illegal aliens.
I hope so- Lulac is not the only organization mixed up in these illegal activities-you can bet that “christian” organizations like Catholic Charities are guilty of helping mojados vote, as well...
