A report claims the following
A small county allegedly has a Texas-sized voter fraud problem, as a grand jury indicted six people, including local officials.
The six were charged in an alleged vote harvesting scheme in Frio County, Texas, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office announced Wednesday.
Several states have cracked down on ballot harvesting, which is when political operatives distribute and collect large quantities of absentee ballots.
Frio County Judge Rochelle Camacho, a Democrat and the county’s top official, was charged with three counts of vote harvesting, according to the attorney general’s office.
Pearsall City Council members Ramiro Trevino and Racheal Garza were both charged with one count of vote harvesting. Pearsall Independent School District Trustee Adriann Ramirez was charged with three counts of vote harvesting, according to the attorney general’s office.
Two others charged were not public officials. Former Frio County Elections Administrator Carlos Segura was charged with one count of tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, according to the state attorney general’s office. Frio County resident Rosa Rodriguez was charged with two counts of vote harvesting.
All are presumed innocent.
Paxton, a Republican, said his office has worked with Texas 81st Judicial District Attorney Audrey Louis, also a Republican, in the investigation.
“The people of Texas deserve fair and honest elections, not backroom deals and political insiders rigging the system,” said Paxton, who is challenging incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in a 2026 GOP primary.
“Elected officials who think they can cheat to stay in power will be held accountable. No one is above the law,” Paxton continued in the public statement. “My office will continue to work with Frio County District Attorney Audrey Louis to protect the integrity of our elections.”
