A civil rights group is investigating reports of a fake mailer circulating in College Station that warns of a $500 fine for displaying signs supporting U.S. Senate candidate Beto ORourke.

The letter, recently obtained by the Texas Civil Rights Project, features a CITATION WARNING, quick facts about ORourke and a BETO REALITY CHECK that includes the comments NOT HISPANIC, FELONY ARREST RECORD, INSIDER TRADING VIOLATIONS, FATHERS DRUG SCANDAL and FAMILY BUSINESS FEDERALLY PROSECUTED, according to images of the letter the organization shared on social media Tuesday. The letter appears to end with These issues have not been effectively reported to Texas voters.

The envelope for the letter had a fake Austin return address, the organizations voting rights legal director, Beth Stevens, told the American-Statesman. It appears the letter was processed and sent through a post office in North Houston, she said.

Its absolutely a voter suppression tactic, Stevens told the Statesman Tuesday.

A spokeswoman for the Cruz campaign said it wasnt responsible for the mailer. ORourkes campaign declined to comment on the report.

Stevens said the organization has contacted the Texas secretary of states office and might work with a law enforcement agency on the matter.


How desperate is the Ted Cruz campaign to hold onto that seat? This is after they mailed out fake summonses that were actually to solicit donations.

Sounds like something Ted would do after eating his normal daily lunch of a human hair clipping sandwich and warm animal bile from a Stanley thermos.

It's funny (not really) how Republicans and their supporters claim they're morally superior and have more integrity and yet they always have to cheat to win elections. Shit like this, closing down DMV's and other places that make IDs, gerrymandering...

If Texas was as red as we've all been told, redhats wouldn't be shook enough about O'Rourke to pull this crap.
