They say that voter fraud is a myth; it doesn’t really happen. They say that voter fraud is a construct designed by conservatives to specifically support the voter identification laws and disenfranchise certain voters.
Carol Hannah of Bullhead City has been convicted of a Class 5 felony for voting twice in the 2010 General Election. Hannah voted in Mohave County, Arizona and Adams County, Colorado.
Voter registration records, compared through the Interstate Crosscheck Program, indicated Hannah, a registered republican, received an early ballot from Colorado at her Bullhead City mailing address and returned it to Adams County election officials on October 23, 2010. Shortly thereafter, Ms. Hannah voted at a polling place in Bullhead City on November 2, 2010; a violation of Arizona Revised Statutes § 16-1016(2) and 42 U.S.C. §1973i.
Assistant Attorney General Todd Lawson, prosecuted the case.
Initially used by a handful of states to eliminate duplicate registrations, the Interstate Crosscheck Program has grown to include 28 states. The records are compared annually, but only include the voting history for general elections. In January of this year, more than 101 million records were compared.
