CAIR-Houston Condemns Texas Secretary of State’s statement on Harris County Elections, Encourages Community Members to Vote

(Houston, TX, 10/20/2022) – The Houston chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-Houston), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, condemned the Texas Secretary of State’s letter to the Harris County Elections Administrator. 

Yesterday, The Texas Secretary of State released a letter sent to the Elections Administrator of Harris County with notice it was sending “a contingent of inspectors to the county to observe” the November election.  The letter also included allegations of minor discrepancies, which would be found in any audit of a large county, and others that exceeded technology in Harris County in 2020.  The previous Secretary of State found no significant improprieties with the 2020 election.

“We condemn in the strongest terms this recent attack by the Secretary of State on the 2020 elections held here in Harris County, which is an obvious attempt at voter suppression and intimidation,” said CAIR-Houston Director William White. “We encourage everyone in Harris County to carefully research candidates on their ballot and to vote based on who you feel will be best for office.  You should feel free to vote as you choose and not be swayed by this scare tactic.  If you experience any instances of intimidation or voter suppression, please contact the CAIR Houston office immediately.”
