Texas to investigate Democrats' mailers asking non-citizens to register to vote |
2018-10-25 |
![]() "The numerous calls and complaints we have received regarding pre-filled voter registration applications sent to ineligible voters are highly disturbing," Mr. Pablos said in a statement Monday. He was referring to mail the state Democratic Party sent out urging people to sign up to vote, and warning of deadlines if they didn’t act quickly. The mailing included a voter application that already had the boxes for age and citizenship status pre-checked. Some of the mail went to non-citizens, who are actually ineligible. The mailings, while sent from the state party, had pre-addressed return envelopes addressed to elections officials, leaving some residents with the impression they were official communications from the state. Encouraging someone to submit a fraudulent registration form is a crime ‐ though officials said it would take an investigation to know whether the party’s mailings cross that line. The Washington Times reported on the mailings last week after the Public Interest Legal Foundation filed complaints with prosecutors in two Texas counties. |
