Allegations of electioneering violations have surfaced in Texas involving school district officials and the state's Attorney General Ken Paxton. Whistleblowers have accused Paxton of firing them for reporting suspected wrongdoing. The controversy includes claims of pressuring employees to block school choice and suggesting voting for specific candidates. Legal actions have been taken against school officials and rural GOP lawmakers by Gov. Greg Abbott.
