Vulnerabilities in our nation’s election integrity that have been exposed in this year’s presidential election exist in Texas as well. The Texas Legislature must act to secure our elections to prevent our state from ending up in a possible future scenario of electoral chaos.
Election integrity is the top concern in America right now, and questions may haunt the final results. “It is an absolute shame that at this point, no matter who wins, the other side will not trust the outcome,” said Christine Welborn, director of election integrity with Direct Action Texas.
Project Veritas published an interview with someone who identified himself as a United States Postal Service employee in Michigan, claiming mail-in ballots received on November 4 were being marked as received the day before, then sent express to their destination. His understanding is ballots received after November 3 aren’t supposed to be counted.
Another self-identified USPS employee in Pennsylvania made similar allegations in another Project Veritas interview.
While these claims occurred in other states, Texas went into the 2020 presidential election vulnerable to election fraud.
“Texas has real issues to address when it comes to securing elections, including verifying voter rolls,” Daniel Greer, executive director of DAT, said in September.
“The way you can tell they haven’t done anything to verify the voter list is that the left is not screeching,” JoAnn Fleming of Grassroots America – We The People said in a prior interview.
This year alone, East Texas Democrats and a North Texas mayoral candidate were charged with mail ballot fraud, Harris County—and to a lesser extent, Dallas County—enacted the highly suspect “drive-thru voting” method, and the integrity of curbside voting has been questioned.
Project Veritas also published an undercover tape that appeared to show ballot harvesting in South Texas, and taxpayer-funded resources at a North Texas school district were linked to efforts to electioneer for Democrats this year.
“Election law has been completely disregarded by some counties with the illegal implementation of ‘drive-thru’ voting, 24-hour voting, and advocation of ineligible voters voting by mail,” Welborn said.
She said the law itself is also flawed, pointing out “it has huge loopholes” that leave our elections “vulnerable to fraud.” Welborn also said government coronavirus orders have made many of these loopholes “larger and have created new ones.”
“Texans should be extremely concerned.”

As my dad has pointed out many times, we have no idea what really goes on in Austin.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
