detailed the corrupt enterprise inside the Harris County Tax Assessor
Collector's office </a> in the nationally read Washington Spectator.
The Lone Star Project first investigated and exposed the Harris County
Republican election scandal revealing that a paid Republican
campaign consultant was allowed to serve as the Associate Voter Registrar
in Harris County, giving Republicans an “inside man.” Under his supervision
during the 2008 election cycle, nearly 70,000 voter registration applications
were turned back and at least 7,000 provisional ballots affidavits were
mishandled, some even altered using white-out. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
