Texas GOP doubles down on fraud claims as Trump, Cruz leads shrink



Texas Republicans are doubling down on claims that Democrats in the states biggest cities are attempting to steal an election that’s showing the GOP’s lead in Senate and presidential races increasingly narrowing.

State GOP leaders like Gov. Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton are targeting the state’s large urban counties — including its most populous Harris County — which they have made the focus of allegations of a grand Democratic conspiracy to steal the 2024 election.


On Tuesday, Abbott announced that his office had removed more than 1 million “ineligible” voters from state rolls, including “more than 6,500 noncitizens,” of which the governor’s office claimed that “almost 2,000 have cast votes,”

Abbott added that those cases would be referred to prosecution to Paxton’s office — which has been on its own campaign against alleged voter fraud as of late.

Paxton falsely told right-wing talk show host Glenn Beck last Thursday that President Biden and Vice President Harris, now at the top of the ticket, had worked to move masses of undocumented voters into critical states to vote illegally – claims he did not back up with any basis.

1. EVERY Democrat in Texas has the responsibility to make God Dam sure they vote

NO EXCUSE, in these Rethuglicon states. WE gotta be smarter than these IDIOTS.

2. Absolutely. This does make it nicer for precinct captain's not having to go to a home that no longer has the

Person living and the new occupants are republicans. That can be sticky especially in Texas.

4. Do I understand you correctly?

You are saying that this voter purge is a good thing, right?

7. AND check your registration, repeatedly.

https://vote.org and other sites can show you if your registration is active and let you register if it isn't.

3. They realize this is going to do more harm to them than good, right?

They can remove half of the voters from the rolls but all it’s going to do is make more people motivated to vote against them.

5. I have to assume many Republican women will vote for Harris and Allred.

Then watch Abbott scream bloody murder.

6. Wingnuts do dirty with votes because they can't attract them with their policies and character.

If other people are “ineligible” why are known criminals and immoral creeps like PAXON eligible – not to mention hold office, especially the office overseeing the Law?

As for projected outcomes and polls (Cancun Carnival CRUZ shrinking), I don’t count chickens or take heart until the last aria goes down.
