Bennett, Steven Hotze’s lawsuit against Harris County for failing to remove tens of thousands of ineligible voters, including potential illegal immigrants, felons, non-residents of Harris County, and deceased individuals, from the voter rolls by the National Voter Registration Act’s 90-day deadline: “Under the National Voter Registration Act, it is appropriate and necessary for jurisdictions to maintain the integrity of voter registration rolls. This includes removing ineligible voters and those who have left the area or passed away. The potential presence of illegal aliens is particularly concerning, as they should never have been added to the rolls in the first place,” said Sen. Cornyn. “I encourage swift consideration of this case and look forward to Houston rectifying these egregious errors and following our election laws.” Background: Under the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, states must remove ineligible names from voter rolls at least 90 days before the date of a federal election. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
