Paxton said he'd sue Harris and Bexar counties if they sent voter registration forms to "unverified recipients".

I wonder why Paxton doesn't want Harris county to vote.

Gov. Greg Abbott announced last week that a comprehensive audit of the state's voter records over the past three years found over one million ineligible voters, nearly half of which are deceased.

I mean I kinda believe it. Once you die, you can't remove yourself from the voter rolls. And there's no requirement that you remove yourself after you move to a different state. Nothing really nefarious about finding people who died or moved out of state on the list.

Though the way ol' Greg puts it makes it seem like those million people tried to vote.
