Houston Chronicle Reports Shocking Texas House Vote Story

In the case of the newcomer Democrat and Vietnamese refugee Hubert Vo who reportedly beat long-time Republican power Talmadge Heflin for the State Representative seat for the 149th District by only 33 votes out of 43,499 counted, the investigation has found a real shocking result. This is Texas politics, and there is no apparent fraud.

The Houston Chronicle reported January 15th that their investigation showed no indications of vote fraud, and the relatively few voting errors that have been found to have occurred will not change the outcome of the election.

Of course, the Republican Talmadge Heflin has appealed to the Republican controlled Texas House of Representative, so there may yet be vote fraud committed. We’ll just have to wait, watch the Texas House of Representatives at work, and determine if the normal fraud and criminal activity of that august body rises to the surface in this case.
