Judge Lina Hidalgo, in her bid for re-election, has publicly and repeatedly accused challenger Alexandra Mealer of backing the ban on nearly all abortions passed into law by the Texas Legislature.
Unlike most claims in the spot, this inflammatory accusation against Mealer is unsourced and as it turns out, for good reason.
"It is certainly a misleading ad that is trying to imply that Mealer supports a law that Mealer has never said she supports, and she certainly wasn't a state legislator voting on it," said Jones. "Now, Alex Mealer wants to take charge of our health system as Harris County Judge. Don't let her," says the spot's narrator.For the record, a spokesman for Harris Health confirmed to FOX 26 that the safety net hospital system has never performed elective abortions, and that includes every day Hidalgo has served in office.
"The Hidalgo ad is mostly disingenuous. The County Judge in Texas has very limited powers and those powers have nothing to do whatsoever with abortion or really with health care policy altogether," said Jones.Panel discusses the constant debate with Lina Hidalgo and Alexandra Mealer. Discussion takes place on how budgets have increased for law enforcement while Hidalgo has been in office and the primary focus for Mealer is restoring public safety.
