1/ You might be seeing headlines or tweets tonight that claim Texas says 58,000 non-citizens have voted in Texas.
That is not true.
That is not what the state has said.
Here is what we know. #txlege https://t.co/wyvcrEDkmD— Texas Tribune (@TexasTribune) January 26, 2019
3/ Those 95,000 registered voters are individuals who the state says have provided some form of documentation that showed they were not a citizen when they were obtaining a driver’s license or an ID card. https://t.co/wyvcrEDkmD

5/ First: In its notice to counties, the secretary of state’s office said the names should be considered “WEAK” matches, using all capital letters for emphasis. https://t.co/wyvcrEDkmD

7/7 Counties may now choose to investigate the eligibility of the individuals who were flagged.
So it’s unclear exactly how many of those individuals are not actually U.S. citizens and whether that number will be available in the future.https://t.co/wyvcrEDkmD— Texas Tribune (@TexasTribune) January 26, 2019
