    Election Fraud Prosecution at an ‘All-Time High’: Texas Attorney General’s Office

    An official in TexasAttorney General’s office testified during a state House hearing that the number of election fraud cases in Texas is at an “all-time high.”

    The amount is “higher than our historical average by a long shot,” said Jonathan White, the head of the election fraud agency within the Texas Attorney General’s Special Prosecution Division, to the Texas House Elections Committee last week, reported The Texan.

    When asked by a state lawmaker if there were trends in election fraud prosecutions, White said that “have 510 offenses pending against 43 defendants in court right now,” saying it’s “for several reasons probably.” He did not elaborate.

    White said that about 80 percent of those pending cases involve alleged mail-in ballot fraud, and 60 percent of resolved cases involved mail-in voting.

    The attorney general’s office prosecuted 534 election fraud-related cases committed by 155 people since 2005, according to the report.

    “I think we could both agree that 99.9 percent of people are honest and forthright, they don’t cheat at elections. They don’t go around murdering people or committing aggravated robberies, either,” White said in the hearing.

    Last week, the Republican-led Texas state Senate approved legislation that would ban mail-in ballot drop boxes and most drive-thru voting, a measure that Republicans say “ensures election integrity.” Democrats have said it’s voter suppression and makes it harder for people with disabilities and ethnic minorities to vote.

    The measure, according to state Sen. Bryan Hughes, a Republican, is “designed to address areas through process where bad actors can take advantage because we want the people of Texas to be confident their elections are fair, honest, and open.” The legislation “standardizes and clarifies” voting rules so “every Texan has a fair and equal opportunity to vote, regardless of where they live in the state.”

    It also will require voters who have disabilities to prove that they can’t access polls in person in order to qualify for a mail-in ballot, and would also require authorization from top state leaders to be alerted about any private funding of more than $1,000 that is given to election departments, according to KXAN.

    Democrats said the bill will lead to voter suppression.

    “Every eligible Texan deserves to have their voice heard at the ballot box—regardless of their race, ethnicity, disability, gender, age, income, or party. SB 7 makes it harder for every Texan to vote,” a statement from the state Democratic Party said. “We aggressively fought this bill because we know it will disenfranchise racial and ethnic minority voters and voters with disabilities, including veterans.”

    Yeah now democrats are saying that black people are so stupid they can't find their drivers license number on their drivers license. Seems like they know the education system they control fails that miserably.
    I think if someone is so stupid they can't find their drivers license number on their drivers license that person shouldn't be voting. Or driving. But I can see why the democrats would want people like that voting.

    You would have to be brain dead not to believe election fraud was going on in other states at the s
    This should be a wake up call to all blacks in this country the DemoRATS have been using and abusing you for years simply to get elected. Blacks should be highly insulted the demoRATS believe they are too stupid to get an ID -be it a drivers license or state issued ID. Elections are held in Nov and even in GA it ain't that hot you'll die standing in line from thirst without water, again they believe you are too stupid to bring a bottle of water. What GA passed is so far from the old Jim Crow laws (passed by demoRATS) the comparison is an insult to any black that has an IQ over 70. Yet blacks fall for this BS hook line and sinker every time -- maybe they are that stupid after all.

    Very little question that fraud happened. What remains unanswered is whether or not it was massive enough to have altered the results such that the outcome would have been reversed. Either way, it needs to be tracked to the source and let the barred doors close.

    BTW, the lower levels are more easily affected than the national shots, simply because less attention is paid to the dog catcher results than the senators.

    Even if the fraud was massive enough to alter the elections' outcomes, there would be no reversing them now.
    That's what makes fraud so successful. It's difficult to prove, and by the time it's proven it's too late to do anything about it.
