Paxton's opponent Justin Nelson sided with the district judge and the Civil Rights Project: "It is offensive and dangerous for the Office of Attorney General to attack a judge personally. Just as offensive, Ken Paxton is trying to make it more difficult to register to vote than it is to renew a driver's license on-line. ... We should make it easier to vote, not harder."<ref name=jeremyw/> ''The San Antonio Express-News'' argued that Paxton has made it more difficult for voters to register: "Voter apathy is a big problem in our state. Every election season there is a big push to register more people so they can cast a ballot to offset the pitiful turnout at the polls. Yet here we have civic-minded people who are making the effort to register to vote, but we won't grant them the convenience of changing their [voter] address online. The state should be making it easier -- not harder --for people to register."<ref name=makingvotingeasier/>

Just three weeks before the 2018 general election, Paxton confirmed that voter fraud charges had been filed against four Hispanic women accused of participation in 2016 in an organized ring that focused upon elderly residents in the Fort Worth area to use those senior citizens to generate forged mail-in ballots, many of which were for Democratic candidates. Paxton accuses the women of "assisting" the senior citizens to monitor their choices of candidates or filling out the ballots and having the voter sign the mail-in ballot.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theblaze.com/news/2018/10/16/authorities-charge-organized-ring-with-voter-fraud-for-generating-forged-ballots-many-for-democrats|title=Authorities charge organized ring with voter fraud for generating forged ballots, many for Democratic candidates|publisher=Theblaze.com|accessdate=October 16, 2018|accessdate=October 18, 2018}}</ref>
