In her letter to Remi Garza, the president of the Texas Association of Election Administrators, she asked detailed questions about the organization's efforts to combat"lies and conspiracy theories and protect the integrity of federal elections" in the state.

Across the country, including Texas, many Republican leaders have repeated conspiracy theories about the 2020 election results.
