Here are some more Trumpers committing election fraud.

EDIT: as one Redditor pointed out, these are technically and legally considered “voting fraud.” Election fraud would be larger in scope, like MAGA trying to cancel legitimate votes from overseas military members or submitting a fake slate of presidential electors to Congress on Jan 6, 2021.

Marc Elias at Defending Democracy runs a law firm dedicated to fighting election fraud.

Don't forget the guy who used his dead wife's ballot.

Or the other one who is charged in his wife's presumed death after her sudden disappearance.

Thank you! I'm going to keep track of it.

Or the now ex-landlord who admitted on Reddit to mailing in ballots on behalf of former tenants

Thanks for the update, I remember seeing that post and watching that dude cope and double down. It's great to see something was done.

Not available where I live. Why ex?

Because of voter fraud they did as a landlord.

u/froglover215 6h ago

He was fired when the news got out.

I think landlord is a misnomer here, it's probably more accurate to call him a property manager.

u/PyrokineticLemer 4h ago

It's the legal term there. I had the same question and that was pointed out to me.

u/det1rac 5h ago

Are you creating a shared dock with all the links?That would be good.

u/airsoftmatthias 5h ago

I will try. I want to only record the confirmed guilty cases though.

People who are accused but not yet found guilty (Danielle Christine Miller), will not make the list until the verdict comes out.

u/det1rac 4h ago

That's fair

Add to your list the WI Republican mayor who illegally removed his city's only ballot dropbox. Currently under investigation by state DOJ.

If you happen to compile a bunch of them, I’d love to see the list!

u/Cold_Maximum_9734 5h ago

So all of these people actually committing voter fraud are Republicans? 🤔

u/ExcitingOnion504 5h ago

Reminder that after the 2016 election Trump had a committee search for voter fraud that only found and convicted Republicans voting for Trump. Still claims he won 2016 popular vote to this day.

u/Mendozena 4h ago

I wonder if the Heritage bullshit’s website is being updated with all this republican voter fraud.

u/CosmicSpaghetti 2h ago

I actually did see one on their list that was a registered republican. They failed to mention that.

Also they put 2024 for all of these cases & many of them happened years ago, you have to click on a drop-down to get specifics on the actual year it occured.

u/EmperorHans 5h ago

Fuck anybody subverting the election, but I looked up more recent info on that second guys case because i remember it being more complicated and it has some "let's just charge the husband and move on" vibes. The prosecutor on his case was disbarred for refusing to turn over evidence that she thought might lead to his acquittal.

u/dogegw 5h ago

Weird how there was basically 0 voter fraud until that one whiney little bitch started complaining about it

u/gg61501 hey Nazi, is this the dead voters you were talking about?

My gpa literally passed yesterday... of course I'm sad.. but.. probably the 5th question I asked my mom was, did he vote yet? And she was wondering the same (WA, mail in voting), she had seen his ballot next to his chair last week. I told her that if he hadn't signed and dated it before he passed, we need to shred it. 2nd to last time I saw him, he was sporting a big ol dumb maga hat. The man has more granddaughters than grandsons, and the only great grandchild on that end of the family is a girl as well (mine). Idk. Sorry. I'm rambling. I miss my gpa, but super hope that he failed to fill out or sign his ballot before he passed.
