Politiquera History

James Osborne of The Monitor has another story on politiqueras, this one discussing the history of the paid political operatives. Their power grew when the state laws expanded early voting rules, resulting in the abuses we see to this day.

I wonder what examination of Hidalgo County's mail-in and early voting ballots from this year will uncover.

It's not a Democrat thing, it's a South Texas thing. I'm sure that if the Republicans were the one party in charge, they would have the same corruption and voter fraud problems the Dems have.
