How badly will Dan Patrick’s ‘help’ hurt GOP mail-in voters? | Opinion
Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick talks about critical race theory at the Capitol in Austin on Friday, Feb. 18, 2022.Hypocrisy is bad, but incompetence is worse. And either unsolicited applications for mail-in ballots are threats to election integrity or they aren’t.
One problem, and it is a big one. By law, the applications are supposed to be returned to local county election offices, not the secretary of state. Patrick’s campaign had an answer for that irregularity, and that is that Republican voters don’t trust elections officials in blue counties. The irony is that Patrick opposed elections offices sending unsolicited mail-in applications around the state, citing security and fraud concerns from Harris County’s plan in 2020 to send vote-by-mail applications to all 2.4 million registered voters in the county.the county for violating Texas election law on grounds that mass mailing would “sow confusion” for voters.
