AUSTIN – Today is the last day to register to vote. As Texans prepare to cast their ballots on November 3, it is vital that they know the facts about Gina Hinojosa and her track record when it comes to election integrity. Hinojosa voted against requiring ID for mail-in ballots, against increasing the penalty of illegal voting to a felony, against criminalizing ballot harvesting, and against allowing the Attorney General to prosecute election crimes in Texas. When given the chance, Hinojosa even refused to make clear that only United States citizens can vote in Texas elections.
“Governor Abbott has taken vital steps to ensure the safety and security of Texas elections. Meanwhile, Gina Hinojosa has repeatedly worked to undo those protections. Today is the final day for Texans to register to vote in the November election – they should have confidence in the integrity of our elections, something Gina refuses to guarantee.”
— Catherine Frazier, Texans for Greg Abbott Communications Director
