Hispanic leaders in Tarrant County have filed a complaint with the U.S. Justice Department, alleging that senior citizens are being intimidated into not voting.

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports that the complaint from the United Hispanic Council of Tarrant County says a voter-fraud investigation has "left a trail of confused and upset seniors who are now afraid of voting," either in person or by absentee ballot.

Concerns have arisen over mail-in ballots, which some people think can lead to "vote harvesting" — the illegal process of filling out and returning the ballots of valid voters without their consent.

The complaint alleges that political activists are making "vigilante-style" door-to-door visits, claiming to be investigating voter fraud.

1. Wow, the fucking GOP should be held accountable

3. Extend the consent decree. Yes, the GOP is breaking it with all the crap laws and intimidation.

It has been in force since 1982 and is for review in 2017. Extend it the 8 years that are pending.

Destroying fair and free elections, using the pretense they're ensuring fair and free elections.

Loathsome nazis.

4. Tarrant County is one of the few GOP Urban areas left in Texas due to election fraud.

And they are desperate to keep it that way.

5. Learned Vote Harvesting from Dallas County

Old Dallas election trick, pay people to go out and collect mail-in ballots, making sure they are filled out in the way that the harvester wants. That is how the toll road through the Dallas river bottoms got approved by only around 1000 votes.
