Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a fierce crusader against voter fraud, is now under fire for allegedly voting illegally in six elections using an outdated address — a move his opponent, State Rep. James Talarico, says violates state law. Despite moving out in 2024, Paxton’s campaign brushed off the claims, citing a refusal to discuss anything but law enforcement. The Collin County Democratic Party has formally filed a complaint with the Texas Secretary of State, triggering a potential criminal probe — though delays loom with the new leadership at the agency. Critics argue this exposes a glaring hypocrisy: while Paxton rails against election fraud, he may be the very case the state is too slow to investigate. The controversy reignites old accusations of self-serving conduct, especially as lawyers question whether his divorce proceedings undermine any legal defense. This moment tests Texas’ commitment to accountability — and whether election integrity means holding anyone, including its top law enforcement official, to the same standard.
