Texas Gov. Greg Abbott suggest on Sunday that HR 1, the House passed bill that expands voting rights could allow for the use of “cocaine to buy votes.”
Abbott claims Democrats “are trying to institutionalize voter fraud in the United States of America” with the bill by making “mail-in ballots permanent.”
Abbot then described his time as Texas attorney general, and recalled an “amazing story” about vote-buying.
“It was Barack Obama himself who knew about the dangers of ballot harvesting in the state of Texas,” Abbott said, “because under his administration, he sent his U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas as well as the FBI to south Texas to arrest and to prosecute people who were involved in ballot harvesting that were using cocaine to buy votes through the ballot harvesting process in the state of Texas.”
