MAGA candidate in small Calif. town convicted on 9 counts of election fraud​

Gaea Powell echoed a core idea from the Make America Great Again movement when she ran for San Luis Obispo County clerk-recorder earlier this year, arguing for new voter ID rules to improve “election integrity” in the Central California county.

But it turns out this conservative candidate wasn’t following election laws herself.

A county jury found Powell guilty on nine counts of election fraud last week, including lying about her residence, unlawfully registering to vote and fraudulently voting. The charges stem from 2022 and 2024 elections, when Powell ran for mayor of Arroyo Grande, a small town near Pismo Beach.

^^ 180 degrees ass backwards wrong.​

Nope, I've consistently said voting fraud is rare and insignificant, usually caught and prosecuted, and is usually committed by Trump supporters.

Casting a fraudulent vote is hard to get away with, and the reward does not outweigh the risk, which is also a good deterrent. I've never met anyone who thought it was a good idea to risk a felony and prison time against the reward of one measly fraudulent vote which will not sway an election.
