| Texas Secretary Of State: As Many As 58,000 Non-Citizens Voted In Elections |
| 2019-01-26 |
| [Star-Telegram] Texas election officials said Friday that tens of thousands of people whose U.S. citizenship could not be confirmed cast ballots in one or more election in the state during the past 22 years. Texas Secretary of State David Whitley said a year-long evaluation found about 95,000 people described as "non-U.S. citizens" who are registered to vote in Texas. About 58,000 of them voted in Texas elections between 1996 and 2018, Whitley said. "Integrity and efficiency of elections in Texas require accuracy of our state’s voter rolls, and my office is committed to using all available tools under the law to maintain an accurate list of registered voters," Whitley said. These voters were found as state workers updated voter registration lists, comparing data with the Texas Department of Public Safety, to make sure those who cast ballots were eligible to do so, Whitley said. |

| #8 Voter fraud is treason and should be treated as such. Public examples need to be made. Watching people hang for their crimes is a powerful incentive to not be that person. |

| #7 Just one component of vote fraud, which all told is a much, much larger number. |

| #2 More importantly, audit every election and invalidate every one where illegal votes figured in the outcome. Pass a law making it the case that there's no statute of limitations for tossing a candidate who won on illegal votes out of office. |
