Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg has called for the assistance of the Texas Rangers to investigate the county’s election issues from Nov. 8, two days after Texas Governor Greg Abbott called for an investigation into the widespread election problems.
Ogg said when the DA’s Office receives complaints of election irregularities, they are required to investigate. She said the results of the Texas Rangers’ investigation will be turned over to a grand jury.
