O’Keefe was charged alongside fellow influencer Cam Higby after they allegedly misrepresented themselves at polling places during Minnesota’s primary in August.
A Minnesota prosecutor on Wednesday charged conservative provocateur James O’Keefe and influencer Cam Higby with felony counts of unlawful voting and identity theft after they misrepresented themselves at polling places in August using the names of registered voters.
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, who announced the charges at a news conference, accused the pair of entering polling places during state primary election voting on Aug. 11 and identifying themselves using names of registered voters in those precincts without those voters’ knowledge or permission.
“Both men stopped short of signing the oath we all sign before receiving our ballot,” she said. “But Minnesota law states clearly that no individual shall intentionally misrepresent their identity in applying for a ballot.”
A lady in Georgia, a mother, did less than this by accident.
She’s still in jail. Because she’s black.
i am unfamiliar with her story, did she vote? because they didn’t, they basically identified themselves falsely. they didn’t get a ballot, and they didn’t cast a vote.
they probably would argue that they were testing the system.
still, they will face the state in court (if it went to that).
“Influencer”?
Ratfucker. Luckily he’s such a raving asshole that he’ll piss someone off in prison.
I hope someone is keeping track. Lots of righties crying about voter fraud then committing it. We’ll need a tally at some point. My absolute favorite is when they get caught, they always say “I did it to prove the lefties can do it” but they’re the only ones who actually do it. Once again, every accusation is a confession.
Ahh, well, you see, yes, you see, the lefties do it but they don’t get caught because they are smarte…no, yes, no, no, not because they are that but because they are more cunning.
Stupidly cunning, but in a not smart way.
They do it such a stupid way that us much smarter righties don’t have the stupidity levels to go that low!! Yes, that’s it. Yes.
So, if he’s convicted, does the person who found his fraudulent voting get that $1m that trump promised?
I guarantee that does not apply if the guilty person is a Republican.
No plea. Max sentence. Make an example. MAGAts should be on board too, given how much they claim to hate voter fraud.
Of course he did. Republicans can’t win if they don’t cheat, lie or steal.
I feel like this is then just trying to “prove” how easy it is to do a voter fraud.
Feel like? It’s 100% what it was. I believe that was their stated goal.
Could easily be. I try my best not to pay attention to the dregs of society if I can help it.
Well it was in the article…
They posted videos capturing their interactions on social media in August. O’Keefe said on X that they dressed in “Muslim garb” — including, for one of them, a full-face veil known as a niqab
Are men “allowed” to wear a niqab?
Islam does have a prohibition on men acting like women and vice versa, so barring extenuating circumstances the answer is “no.” That said nobody can actually tell whether the person wearing a niqab is a man or a woman unless they speak.
He’s dressing in women’s clothes now?
What restroom did he use?!
Only if they are trans
{cough} projec {cough} tion {cough}
Classic Republican. The accusation is a confession.
This guy is so overdue for prison.
Always the ones you most suspect
The real scum of this country
He always gets a mulligan. IOKIYAR
I hope NBC gets 1 million $$
Is thay ALL?
