Abbott says Texas crime of vote fraud targets Democrats
Republican Attorney General Greg Abbott says he has prosecuted 26 vote fraud cases since labeling an epidemic, all against Democrats, mainly Black or Hispanic defendants, with small fines and little jail time. The Dallas Morning News, in its Sunday edition, notes none involved large schemes. Democrats accuse Abbott of partisan intimidation. Abbott created a vote fraud unit, used a 1.4 million dollar federal grant, and dispatched investigators.
