Four Democrats have been arrested and charged with running a massive voter fraud ring in Tarrant County near Dallas.
According to Attorney General Ken Paxton, the women were targeting senior citizens on Fort Worth’s north side during the 2016 primary election.
Cbslocal.com reports: While calling it an organized ring, the attorney general’s office could not say if investigation was ongoing or if additional indictments could be expected.

A grand jury indicted Leticia Sanchez, Leticia Sanchez Tepichin, Maria Solis and Laura Parra on Wednesday.
Paxton’s office said the women harvested votes, by filling out applications for mail-in ballots, with forged signatures. Then they would either “assist” the voter with filling out the ballot, or fill it out themselves, and use deception to get the voter to sign the envelope the ballot would be sent back in.
Political consultant Aaron Harris said Friday the case stemmed out of information he provided to investigators back in 2016.
“The harvesters sit around and fill these out by the hundreds, often by the thousands,” he said Friday.
Harris publicly presented documents that year of signatures that didn’t match on applications and envelopes.
In October, Governor Greg Abbott posted on twitter about a voter fraud case under investigation in Tarrant County.
Harris said he’s documented a number of additional people involved in the ring, but recognized the cases can be difficult to prosecute.
“Just because they may have been indicted on one or two, or 16 counts, doesn’t mean they don’t have 200 counts but those are the only 16 that can be proven,” he said.
Tarrant County elections administrator Heider Garcia said Friday his office had cooperated with state investigators. He had not reviewed the indictments but said he expected to reach out to the attorney general’s office to see if anything was identified in election procedures that needed to be corrected.
The indictments show several of the ballots in question were for Democratic candidates.
Tarrant County Democratic Party Chairwoman Deborah Peoples said she had met Leticia Sanchez in the past.
She said she was not aware of specific details of the case though, and she questioned the timing of the indictments, less than four weeks ahead of the November midterm elections.

Democrats are good at one thing. Fixing elections. No one has more experience and expertise.
LIARS CHEATERS AND THIEVES…. each and every one in the DemonicRAT Party. The Slave Masters need Slaves. The only way Slavery will end is when they realize that they are DELUSIONAL.
I believe in DEATH BED CONVERSIONS and I pray that when they take their last breath in their worldly life that they realize the TRUTH. SADLY, many will never come to know GOD’S TRUTH.
ONCE AGAIN IT SHOWS HOW DECEPTIVE, CROOKED & EVIL THE DEMOCRATS ARE
they have one common look : beady eyes
“she questioned the timing of the indictments, less than four weeks ahead of the November midterm elections.”
Yeah, maybe we should change the date of the elections? Of course the timing is before the election you idiot.
