Sure. It’s from January. It’s being circulated on Facebook right now with normal people taking part in the discussion. Lots of wet fantasies about Texas turning blue lately.
So another “we’re super worried there’s a bunch of voter fraud going on” from a Republican state election official that will turn out to be a wet squib.
I saw this movie like twelve times in 2012 and 2016.
Thread fail. This thread is nothing moe than a panic button push.
From the story.
Beth Stevens, voting rights legal director with the Texas Civil Rights Project, called Whitely’s move “alarming.”
“There is no credible data that indicates illegal voting is happening in any significant numbers, and the secretary’s statement does not change that fact,” Stevens said.
The important part being that normal Americans are discussing it. Most people don’t sit in front of CNN all day waiting for something to get angry about, remember?
Indeed. This is proof that a lot of “normal” people get their news from Facebook. From the perspective of a man who wants an educated populace, and not one beholden to fake news that can be pushed by literally anyone in the world, this troubles me immensely.
Instead they sit around on Facebook all day and find fake news to get angry about. Doesn’t seem much better to me.
