Rio Grande City school district not cooperating with voter fraud investigation
RIO GRANDE CITY — The Rio Grande City school district is refusing to comply with an order to impound election records from the November school district elections that was signed by a judge last week, according to Starr County Attorney Victor Canales.
The order is part of an investigation of mail-in ballots being conducted by his office. It orders the impoundment of mail-in ballots, applications for mail-in ballots, mail-in ballot carrier envelopes, any statements of address or voter assistance returned with mail-in ballots, or any other documents, forms or lists needed for an investigation.
But Canales said that as of Monday, the school district had not complied with the order.
Upon reaching Elections Administrator Hilda Gonzalez Garza by phone, she said she was not available to talk and would call back at a later time. The call was not returned as of press time.
