得克萨斯州总检察长肯·帕克斯顿(Ken Paxton)起诉拉丁美洲公民参与非盈利的Jolt倡议(Jolt Institute), 指称它推行非法选民登记计划, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued Jolt Initiative, a Latino civic engagement nonprofit, alleging it ran an unlawful voter registration scheme by encouraging noncitizens to register, including a reported instance where a volunteer allegedly said a parent could register their child without the child’s presence. 诉讼于10月23日在塔兰特县提起, 声称Jolt在DMV地点附近的活动表明不正当的意图, The lawsuit, filed October 23 in Tarrant County, claims Jolt’s activities near DMV locations suggest improper intent and seeks to dissolve the group’s charter. Jolt称这项诉讼是毫无根据和出于政治动机的,认为它针对选民登记工作,要求将案件移交Harris县。 Jolt called the lawsuit baseless and politically motivated, arguing it targets voter registration efforts and requests the case be moved to Harris County. 此案经过了对非公民投票要求的事先审查,包括一个被揭发的病毒视频,以及帕克斯顿对2 700多名潜在的非公民登记者正在进行的调查,尽管没有证实非公民的普遍投票。 The case follows prior scrutiny over noncitizen voting claims, including a debunked viral video, and Paxton’s ongoing investigation into over 2,700 potential noncitizen registrants, though no widespread noncitizen voting has been confirmed.
