A state investigation is underway over allegations of voter fraud in Tarrant County
...
Concerns have arisen over mail-in ballots, which many believe open the door to “vote harvesting,” or the process of illegally filling out and returning the ballots of valid voters without their consent.
Mail-in ballots are designed for eligible voters who are unable to leave their homes, are in jail or out of the country, and many argue that such balloting is critical for those who would be unable to vote otherwise.
But the mail-in balloting process allows those voters to cast their votes from home without verification of identity, which some say opens the door for abuse.

My county. This is maddening.
too late for me. Went out 2 days ago.
They SHOULD make you send a copy of your ID in with it.
I wonder if they check against DMV signatures.
Voter fraud is how LBJ was first elected to the US senate.
Mine too....wonder what the percentage of dem votes is? 90%? 100%?
LBJ was called Landslide Lyndon for his massive use of vote fraud . = How many votes do you need ? apparently said by a local Democrat boss.
Do away with early voting, mail-in voting, provisional voting...All voting to be done on election day with the only exception being members of the military stationed overseas...
Vote on election day...PERIOD...With photo ID...
If you can’t make it to the polls, tough sh*t...
I’m sure this is just one of several schemes the Dems are using to steal the election. I was in a DPS office to change addresses on my DL several years ago and two obvious Obama voters in front of me were discussing how NOT to give up their current out-of-state license while getting a Texas driver license. You can only imagine why.
I’d only allow for the obviously, provably infirm in nursing homes and hospital be allowed mail-in ballots. Anyone on their feet? Get to the poll.
OK...That would be acceptable also...But that’s about it...
And make it a mandatory holiday so no one can claim that they were “disenfranchised” due to work.
Couldn't agree more.
I agree in general but suspect that hospitals and nursing homes are ground zero for Democrat fraud operations. How hard would it be for political operatives to “help” infirm and non compos mentis residents request absentee ballots, fill them out “correctly”, sign, and return them, without the “voter even knowing it happened? Partisan staff could easily invite people in to handle this. By the time of an investigation, half the “voters” will have no recollection and the other half will have passed away. This would be so easy to get away with, that there’s no way the Dems haven’t thought of it.
At minimum, there should be strict requirements, including name, address, and signature on the ballot of anyone “helping”, signature by the voter’s next of kin, and a doctor’s statement attesting that the voter is compos mentis. And of course, LONG jail terms for violators.
Fort Worth is in county i believe
I like your idea of a National Holiday. Since the "gimmedats" are off all day to vote for more stuff, it seems unfair for the employed to have to work all day and then go to the polls. It might increase the conservative votes from the hard workers who are too tired or too involved dealing with their families, etc. What would be the negative "unintended circumstances"?
Agreed. Also, all military and other officials and staff who are out-country.
All others need to get off their butts and go to a local voting facility, WITH A COPY OF A HOUSE UTILITY BILL AND PHOTO ID with same name on both. I know that won't stop the illegal aliens, but it would cut it down quite a bit.

I agree, though I live outside the US. I took advantage of the present system to vote by email in Arizona. I trust Arizona’s system for the present, though I have no way of knowing if my vote was counted, but then neither does anyone else.
Regardless of the ubiquitous comments about “Banana Republics”, I really wish the US had a system like Honduras. No one is registered to a particular party, no one votes without their national ID, all citizens over 18 can vote but only at their precinct of record, no debates, no primaries in the US sense. Honduras has eight recognized parties, and candidates battle it out in the media and stumping around the country until election day. There are no absentee ballots or mail-ins. The candidate with the most votes nationwide wins. You either get to your precinct to vote ON ELECTION DAY, or tough sh*t.
It’s all mail-in ballots here in Washington State and I don’t like it one bit. We drive ours to the county clerk’s office drop box since I do not trust our postal carriers.
CO is ripe for this
....and the same gang came through for Lyndon again in 1960, when Kennedy stole Texas with LBJ’s guidance.
