Group Claims Video Shows Davis Backers Mocking Abbott
A conservative group is accusing supporters of state Sen. Wendy Davis gubernatorial bid and Battleground Texas of mocking Attorney General Greg Abbotts disability and encouraging voter fraud.
The video released Thursday by Project Veritas purports to show footage from a meeting of Battleground Texas volunteers and another from a meeting of an Austin Democratic group. Shortly after its release, Davis, who was not in attendance at the meetings featured in the video, released a statement calling the language in it "abhorrent."
"Greg Abbott has persevered through great personal challenge to raise a family, have a productive career, and for that he deserves our respect," she said.
During a meeting of a group identified in the video as the Austin NxNW Democrats Club, an unidentified person describes Abbott as not good looking, he doesnt speak very well, he doesnt have a good personality and hes in a wheelchair. Paul Labuda, president of the Austin NxNW Democrats, said in an email that he had no comment on the video.
