The Trump and Biden campaigns are ready to deploy challengers to ballot-counting operations in battleground states.
With top Republicans, including the president, bringing
up claims of fraud involving voting-by-mail, indictments announced
Thursday against a Democratic county commissioner in East Texas appear
to bolster those accusations.
The office of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced 134 felony charges were filed against Gregg County Commissioner Shannon Brown and three co-defendants in connection to an alleged vote harvesting scheme involving a Democratic primary in 2018.
According to Paxton's office, Brown and others targeted "young, able-bodied" voters to cast ballots by mail by fraudulently claiming the voters were "disabled," in most cases without the voters' knowledge or consent. The indictments claim this was done to increase the pool of ballots needed to swing the race in Brown's favor.
