US Rep. Jasmine Crockett, Colin Allred speak on Democrats being turned away at polls

Published | Video Starts at 00:24

Listen, what we're dealing with in Dallas county is part of a broader pattern of trying to disenfranchise black and brown voters across the state of Texas that began with the gerrymandering of our congressional districts. As Jasmine knows, Our districts were redrawn at the command of the White House to try and eliminate the voices of communities like those here in North Texas. The district that I am running in right now, this newly drawn 33rd district, should not exist. A Trump appointed judge said that it was a racial gerrymander. (00:24–00:37)

CLAIM

Asserts that the White House directed the redrawing of districts to suppress community voices in North Texas.
