Republican Alexandra Mealer plans to challenge Harris County Judge election result
Analyzing claims from Hidalgo, Mealer campaign ads in Harris County judge race
But now, Mealer said she was concerned about how voter suppression might have affected the race in Harris County. “It is inexcusable that after two months, the public is no further along in knowing if, and to what extent, votes were suppressed,” she said. The move drew swift condemnation from Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee, who said Friday was the deadline to file an election contest and that she wasn’t the only one to do so.
“This is a shameful attempt by a group of losing candidates who couldn’t win the hearts and minds of Harris County voters and are now throwing nonsensical legal theories at the wall to see what sticks,” he said. “Each of them should be deeply embarrassed and these claims should not be taken seriously by the public.”
