Corruption in politics happens at all levels. Just recently Texas mayor of Edinburg was charged for trying to cheat his way into office through an illegal voting scheme. Mayor Richard Molina was charged with engaging in organized election fraud, and two counts of illegal voting. Prosecutors are even saying Molina "tried to tip the scales by having voters change their addresses to places they didn't live, including an apartment complex he owned. Even with the evidence, the mayor denies any and all wrongdoing.
"Voter fraud is an affront to democracy and places the decision-making authority of the Texas electorate in the hands of those who have no right to make those choices," Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said in a statement. "Voter apathy is caused by rigged elections with guaranteed outcomes."
