For all the Trump supporters out there in search of imaginary voter fraud, there actually are a few rare cases where the fraud is REAL and PROVEN, such as the case below. And this one did involve an immigrant, if that makes you feel any better:

 

Iowa official’s wife convicted of 52 counts of voter fraud in ballot-stuffing scheme

November 22, 2023

 

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — The wife of a northwestern Iowa county supervisor was convicted Tuesday of a scheme to stuff the ballot box in her husband’s unsuccessful race for a Republican nomination to run for Congress in 2020.

 

The Sioux City Journal reports that jurors deliberated six hours before finding Kim Taylor guilty of 26 counts of providing false information in registering and voting, three counts of fraudulent registration and 23 counts of fraudulent voting.

 

Prosecutors said Taylor, a Vietnam native, approached numerous voters of Vietnamese heritage with limited English comprehension and filled out and signed election forms and ballots on behalf of them and their English-speaking children.

Which then earlier this year led to:

 

Republican candidate’s wife sentenced to prison for voter fraud

April 3, 2024

 

An Iowa woman who sought to boost her husband’s unsuccessful congressional bid in 2020 through a voter fraud scheme was sentenced by a federal judge to four months in prison Monday in a rare case of fraudulent voting.

 

Kim Taylor, 50, was convicted by a federal jury in November on 52 counts including fraudulent voting and providing false information in registering and voting.

...

Prosecutors said Taylor used the ballots to fraudulently generate votes for husband Jeremy Taylor’s unsuccessful bid in the Republican primary for a seat in Iowa’s 4th Congressional District. The month after his primary loss, he successfully ran for Woodbury County Supervisor and still holds the position.

And the above drew the following spot-on commentary from MSNBC:

The deep ironies in the GOP's war on 'voter fraud'

How many Republicans will get caught committing voter fraud before the GOP stops pointing fingers?
 
April 5, 2024
 
"No matter what former President Donald Trump claims, actual incidents of voter fraud are extremely rare. Those instances that have come to light in the aftermath of the 2020 election are nowhere near widespread enough to swing a presidential election, let alone most down-ballot races. Taylor’s case, one of those rare instances, highlights one supreme irony of the GOP’s obsession with voter fraud: many of the cases of knowing fraud that have been prosecuted since then have had Republicans as the perpetrators.
...
Other Trump supporters have been caught trying to vote more than once, including multiple residents at Florida’s retirement community The Villages. Still others have been caught trying to cast votes in the names of their dead spouses or family members, one of whom was initially a right-wing cause célèbre after claiming someone had stolen his dead wife’s absentee ballot. And just last month, a former election official in Milwaukee was found guilty of voter fraud for using her position to get obtain fraudulent absentee ballots and send them to a Republican state lawmaker who’d boosted Trump’s election lies.

And now just this week in Michigan, we have the Democrat attorney general filing felony criminal charges against four voters accused of attempted double voting in this year's presidential primary, and against three city clerk staff who allegedly facilitated the alleged fraud -- which a Republican county prosecutor had declined to pursue.

 

7 people face felony charges in double voting incident in St. Clair Shores

October 4, 2024

 

(CBS DETROIT) - Seven people, including four voters, face felony charges in an alleged double voting incident in Michigan's August 2024 primary election, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced Friday morning. 

 

The incident involves four St. Clair Shores residents flagged for submitting two ballots in the primary election on Aug. 6. According to Nessel, each person voted by absentee ballot, returned their ballot and then voted in person at their polling location on election day. In three of the four cases, voters signed an affidavit saying they had not received an absentee ballot despite completing and returning one, Nessel said. Election workers informed the voters that their absentee ballots had already been received but were allegedly instructed by assistant clerks to override the system and issue in-person ballots. 

...

In August, Macomb County Prosecutor [Republican] Peter Lucido declined to authorize charges against the four voters, saying an investigation showed that the "appropriate mechanisms functioned as intended to detect the issue," and that his office "concluded probable cause did not exist to believe that a crime had occurred."

Michigan attorney general charges 7 over double voting in Macomb County

...

In a statement, Lucido said he respects the Attorney General's "jurisdiction and investigatory resources."

 

"It is not unusual for the Attorney General to charge criminal cases in which a local prosecutor did not," Lucido added. "I expect justice will be served. I have no further comment on this ongoing case."

 

But Christina Hines, the prosecutor's Democratic opponent in the Nov. 5 election, said "it is unacceptable that our elected Prosecutor chose not to even investigate this case" and argued it showed Lucido is unqualified to hold office.

Campaign volunteers indicted in Queens voter fraud scheme

Six campaign volunteers, including the daughter of a City Council candidate in Queens, were indicted Thursday on voter fraud charges for allegedly submitting bogus absentee ballots, officials said.

 

The suspects were charged with trying to rig a Council race for Republican candidate Yu-Ching James Pai, who was running in a June 2023 primary for the District 20 Council seat in Queens.

...

The allegations revolve around a plot to submit fraudulent absentee ballot applications to boost Pai’s campaign.
