Texas Office of the Attorney General issued the following announcement on June 26.

Attorney General Paxton applauded the United States Supreme Court for leaving in place a Fifth Circuit order blocking unlawful mail-in voting.

“I applaud the Supreme Court for following the law and refusing to order mail-in balloting that the Texas Legislature has forbidden. 

Universal mail-in ballots, which are notoriously vulnerable to fraud, would only lead to greater election fraud and disenfranchise lawful voters,” said Attorney General Paxton. “State election officials have many options available to safely and securely hold elections without risking widespread fraud. My office will continue to fight for safe, free and fair elections.”
