A judge has dismissed an election fraud case that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton brought earlier this year against a Medina County official.
Bandera County Judge Melvin Rex Emerson dismissed all charges on Dec. 21 against Tomas Tommy Ramirez, a justice of the peace in Medina County. Three days later, the State Commission on Judicial Conduct said Ramirez could return to his JP position. It had suspended him when he was indicted in February.

..................Paxton, who's been endorsed for re-election by former president Donald Trump despite facing felony charges, earlier this year accused Medina County Justice of the Peace Tomas Tommy Ramirez of running a vote-harvesting operation out of assisted living centers during the 2018 Republican primary.
Ramirez says the allegations led to threats and harassment against him, and he accused Paxton of pushing for an indictment just to get headlines and rile up his base, according to the San Antonio Express-News.
On Tuesday, a judge dismissed all charges against Ramirez.
This case was politically motivated and was totally unjustified, Ramirez said. My family and I have received anonymous hate mail and ugly social media attacks. My law office was vandalized and I was even asked by the State Bar of Texas if I wanted to voluntarily surrender my law license...............................
