$1.5 Million Wasted on Profiling and Mostly Trumped Up Republican Charges of Voter Fraud

Texas Republicans won a sizable federal grant with claims that they would root out widespread practices of voter fraud. In two years they've found 8 genuine cases of fraud (costing the federal government $187,500 per root-out; not exactly cost effective). And those investigations have almost exclusively targeted Democrats, the elderly, and African Americans.
