AUSTIN - Secretary of State Al Gonzales took steps Monday to make sure voter fraud - such as ballots cast by possibly deceased voters - don't crop up in the Nov. 3 election. In recent weeks, Gonzales has taken action to remove as many as 117,000 Texans' names from voter lists. Of those Texans, 43,000 may be dead and 74,000 are duplicate voter registrations. These are key initiatives, Gonzales said, because voter registration in Texas has increased by nearly 400,000 since the March primaries. Now, 11.5 million Texans are registered to vote.
08/07/2003 TEXAS: Hearne Voting Indictments Accusations of voter fraud have lingered over Hearne since last May's city elections. Thursday, dozens of those allegations were determined to be valid enough to go to trial. Following a day-long session, a Robertson County grand jury handed down 29 indictments in its investigation into voter fraud. District Attorney John Paschall says no public officials were indicted, but the investigation is not over. The grand jury reconvenes September 10th to continue looking into the matter. Hearne's May elections were clouded by controversy after an unusually large number of absentee ballots were cast. Paschall has been investigating accusations of forged ballot applications. Thursday was the first day he presented evidence to the grand jury.
Without CA fraud, Feinstein and Boxer wouldn't be Senators, Jane Harman, and the faux-hispanic Sanchez would not be in Congress. Ms. Parra and quite a few others wouldn't be legislators. The list of others is long.
The Republicans offer NO, repeat None, Zilch, leadership on the issue. When Ashcroft, (very quietly)arranged straight elections in Maryland and Missouri, voilà, Republican victory.
Now, Mecha-Bustamante has all but admitted that he will be depending on vote fraud for his victory. Wonder where Ashcroft and Bush the Younger will be? When ais the DOJ going to demand clean votes in CA?
