58,000 non-U.S. citizens may have voted in at least one election here, election official says

Update: Texas’ efforts to purge voter lists: Protect elections or suppress votes? And Nearly 20 percent of Tarrant voters flagged for citizenship scrutiny didn’t belong on list

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.
Over a period of 22 years. Thought that bore repeating

I wouldn't count on it, I'm afraid.
I'm not but I'm also not going to chock up the loss to "illegal voters". I happen to believe people get the leaders they deserve.

Bill Weld is already running so that answers the thread.

But I doubt many more will try. The problem with trying to beat Trump is you are going to have to do it twice. If Weld or someone like Romney or Rand Paul somehow beats Trump in the primary, do you think Trump will just go quietly into that good night? Not a chance. Trump will run as an independent, run a write-in campaign if needed. He already is trying to dig up dirt on Biden, don’t think for one second he would look to shred the guy who beat him in a primary. He might even try to recruit some of those 2nd Amendment supporters he mentioned could help with Hillary. I wouldn’t even put it past him to tell his cult members to vote for the Democrat primary winner just to spite the person that beat him.

Or most supportive of the rights of the unborn?
....and all that support is going to take is an end to medical confidentiality, freedom of movement, the fourth amendment and criminal inquests into miscarriages.

I suggest every woman has to submit to mandatory bi-weekly pregnancy tests and has to report to a pregnancy center if the test is positive. There, she will be taken care of until the unborn has safely been extracted from this dangerous situation.

If we are to take the pro-life crowd at their word and agree that child murder is the issue a response of that magnitude isnt really that out of line. Thankfully pro-lifers do not conduct them selves as if they believe what they claim to.

Gee, I don't recall that ever happening before Roe V. Wade. Are you sure that is going to happen? Because I am fairly certain that will not happen.

Or, perhaps they could be more responsible with their reproductive decisions? Is it too much to ask?

Prior to Roe abortion, while a crime in many states, was not classed as homicide. The latest crop of anti-abortion laws and rhetoric are much more harsh.

Are you sure that is going to happen?

If I am to take the abortion = murder line at face value, yes. However the disconnect between what they claim to believe and how they conduct themselves may hold some hope.

It’s odd - so many folks say they only supported trump because he was the least of two evils. So why aren’t they finding someone better to run in 2020?

My question is: If Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are both guilty of perpetual lying and are both guilty of a multiple of other sinful behavior, then which one of them is the lesser of two evils?
