Republicans ‘Test’ For Voting Fraud, Wind Up In Custody
Two Republicans in separate states were taken into police custody during the past week for allegedly attempting to test how easy it would be to commit voter fraud.
In Nevada, 56-year-old Roxanne Rubin, a Republican, was arrested on Nov. 2 for allegedly trying to vote twice, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported. The newspaper quoted a report by an investigator with the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office that said Rubin “was unhappy with the process; specifically in that her identification was not checked.”
Rubin allegedly voted at one polling location in Henderson, Nev. on Oct. 29 and then went to another voting location in Las Vegas to try to vote again. Poll workers told her records indicated she had already voted, but Rubin allegedly told them she hadn’t. A poll worker reportedly overheard Rubin tell another man that she had “signed my name differently, and they did not ask for ID.” She was arrested at the Riviera Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas and charged with a category “D” felony.
On Tuesday in New Mexico, a Republican poll watcher was taken into police custody after also apparently trying to test the system. According to the Las Cruces Sun-News, the man voted, then obtained a second provisional ballot and announced he was simply “testing the system to see if people could get away with voting twice.”
Santa Clara, N.M. Police Chief Lonnie Sandoval told TPM the suspect’s name would not be released because the investigation was ongoing. He expected to complete the investigation by today and send the report to the district attorney, who would ultimately decide whether to bring charges.
“From what we understand, he was trained by the Republican Party,” Sandoval told TPM. The Grant County Republican Party did not respond to a request for comment.
County Clerk Robert Zamarripa told TPM he and his employees had never seen such an incident before but said it wouldn’t sour his office’s relationship with poll watchers.
“The Republican Party chairwoman from this county handled it accordingly,” Zamarripa said. “We’ve always worked well together, so I don’t think it would cause any problems whatsoever.” Zamarripa said he was told the individual only recently began attending the Republican Party’s meetings and wasn’t well known by the organization’s leaders.

Thanks for the non-story.

I thought Darrin said voting twice was easy as pie...
It is. The restaurant they serve it in sucks tho.
Maybe if they were registered as democrats, they would have been allowed to?
Do you have any proof for this? Or are you just throwing out your usual wild-ass uninformed guess?
" I got nothing, but I also have nothing better to do so I'll make a reply " - WC
they're re ed, only democrips get away with that
Just throwing it out.
You know what a "?" is, right?
So you don't have any proof. Thanks for bringing that up.
I wonder, do you think Romney has ever had sex with a sheep? Like, as part of some underground Mormon cult ritual or something?
Do you think that Bain Capital invested in New York Commercial Real Estate with Donald Trump in 1998?
Do you think that they weren't making any money because a glut of supply of offices in NYC?
Do you think that they took it upon themselves to resolve that glut in 2001?
I said you could easily vote using others voting card
Yes, you would conspire with your friend to commit fraud or steal from him.
You're a great friend.
I almost decided to refuse to show my id when I voted last Tuesday. I live in a red district so it would have been a hoot to see the looks on the faces of the all white poll workers if I had done that
"Let's prove there's voter fraud by committing a bunch of voter fraud!!!"
I'm going to rob a bank this afternoon. You know, to test the security.
Where did you vote that they asked for ID?
Cheating Republicans. Even trying to cheat in Florida they still lose the state.
It is only a story for its humor value. In the grand scheme of things, it means nothing, other than a chuckle or two.
Let's do the handgun, airport security thing next!
