A group of lawyers want the State Bar of Texas to investigate Republican U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz for his "leading" role in attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.
Lawyers with the 65 Project, an organization aiming to hold attorneys accountable for trying to keep former President Donald Trump in power despite his reelection loss, filed an ethics complaint with the association Wednesday. It cites Cruz's role in a lawsuit seeking to void absentee ballots, numerous claims he made about voter fraud, plus an attempt to stop four states from using 2020 election results to appoint electors — all of which failed.
