Texas retracts claim of mass voter fraud touted

"Texas’ announcement that 95,000 non-citizens were on the voter rolls quickly proved to be bogus, so Gov. Whitley quietly promised to rescind his January advisory and halt Texas’ voter purge as part of a settlement with multiple voting rights groups. The factual basis of Paxton and Trump’s tweets has been not just undermined, but fully revoked.  This is a good reminder to be incredibly skeptical of government officials who make eye-popping claims of voter fraud and whose partisan interests are at stake. Over and over and over again, these claims are later proved to be extremely dubious—if not outright false."
