Roger Ortiz Incompetence Continues~Hires Brownsville Cheezmeh Head Mistress As Election Judge!

Linda Castro Dragustinovis

Before this week, I was tempted to view Election Administrator Roger Ortiz as simply incompetent, inept, not man enough to stand up to more assertive, corrupt individuals like Gilberto Hinojosa and Ernie Hernandez.


But with Roger turning a blind eye to all of the Hernandez/Masso/Gomez shenanigans this week, I've had to reassess.  Roger Ortiz is simply on board with the gross election fraud being committed in Cameron County.  He is not simply complicit, but is orchestrating the control of the electorate by the Ernie Hernandez machine. 


Roger ignores the rafters of blatant election fraud, but tries to enforce the mere straws of triviality, like charging Nena and I with loitering outside an election office while dozens of others outside the office during the day were never so charged.  


It's not simply that the election judges at Christ the King Church on Southmost and Cameron Park allegedly work for Ernie, but Roger has tossed all pretension of impartiality aside by appointing Linda Castro Dragustinovis, the head mistress of Brownsville Cheezmeh, as Election Judge at Benevides Elementary School, located at 3101 McAllen Road,  for the July 31 runoff.

Los Fresnos resident Dragustinovis is not only an avid and very public advocate of Erin H. Garcia, Carlos Masso and Abelardo Gomez, but her Notary Public office at 1315 E. Madison St., Brownsville, TX is the address of the Bringing Brownsville Change Political Action Committee with her brother, Austin resident Erasmo Castro as president.  It is the strategic appointing of election judges with clear partisan interest that has allowed Roger Ortiz to taint Cameron County elections beyond what was thought possible.  With these obviously partisan officials in charge, appointed by Roger Ortiz, the stage becomes firmly set to allow politiqueras to illegally present the ballots of the elderly, disabled and mentally impaired without proper safeguards or protocol.

What About the Investigator Roger Called For?

Much ballyhoo was made earlier this week with Roger calling for an investigator from the Secretary of State's office to monitor this election.  Notably, Roger did not call for such an investigator during early voting during which van after van of elderly, disabled and mentally challenged were bused to early voting locations.  

It turns out this inspector, Paul Miles, is not from the Secretary of State's office after all.  A call to that office revealed that Miles was no longer associated, but instead was now a member of an organization called the Texas Association of Counties.  Miles investigative work will also not include a monitoring of how ballots are handled and the protocols of accepting them, but only the actual arithmetic of the count.  Any competent middle school student could have rechecked Ortiz's count.  

Roger

Regardless of the outcome of the July 31 runoff, it is obvious that Brownsville and Cameron County will NEVER have clean elections as long as Roger Ortiz is Election Administrator.
