Georgia's Raffensperger announces indictment of alleged double voter in 2022 election
The indicted individual allegedly voted in both Georgia and Arizona in the 2022 general election.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) announced the indictment of a voter who cast ballots in both Georgia and Arizona in the November 2022 election.
The secretary of state's office conducted an investigation into double-voting following the 2022 general election and referred the case to the Forsyth County district attorney’s office, according to a press release Wednesday.
The DA's office indicted the individual, who allegedly voted in-person during the Advance Voting period in Georgia on Nov. 1, 2022, and then sent a mail-in ballot for Maricopa County, Ariz., on Nov. 5.
The investigation also found information indicating the individual cast ballots in both states over multiple elections.
“Any illegal vote undermines a citizen’s legal vote,” Raffensperger said in a statement. “One citizen, one vote – anyone who tries to run up the scoreboard will be prosecuted.”
