Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton are facing criticism for their recent voter roll purges and alleged voter suppression tactics, particularly targeting Latino communities. Abbott announced the removal of over a million voters from Texas rolls, claiming it is necessary to combat illegal voting, while local leaders argue this action intimidates voters ahead of the upcoming elections. Paxton's aggressive measures against ballot harvesting and his lawsuit against Bexar County's voter registration efforts have drawn protests from organizations like LULAC, which accuse him of trying to disenfranchise minority voters. Additionally, congressional Democrats have expressed concerns over Paxton's intimidation tactics, including armed raids against Latino activists. Despite claims of widespread voter fraud, there is little evidence to support these allegations, raising questions about the motives behind these actions. As election day approaches, local organizations and advocates are intensifying efforts to ensure voter participation and counter perceived intimidation efforts.
