A former County Chair of the Democratic Party in Texas has been indicted alongside eight other individuals in what authorities describe as an illegal vote-harvesting operation.
Juan Manuel Medina, who previously served as the Bexar County Democratic Party Chair and was a candidate for mayor of San Antonio, is facing two charges related to vote harvesting, as reported by Newsmax.
These charges stem from a larger statewide investigation conducted by Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton.
Prosecutors allege that Medina engaged in vote harvesting on behalf of Democrat Cecilia Castellano, who ran unsuccessfully for the Texas House District 80 seat in 2024, losing to Republican Don McLaughlin.
