Arizona man pleads guilty to illegal voter registration scheme in Lancaster County
He also must serve 11 months of probation and pay a $1,000 fine after prosecutors said he paid canvassers to meet voter-registration quotas.
- Guillermo Sainz Gurrola, an Arizona-based field manager for Field+Media Corps, pleaded guilty Monday to soliciting illegal voter registrations in Pennsylvania and was sentenced to 30 days in Lancaster County Prison.
- Sainz Gurrola managed Pennsylvania voter registration efforts from May to October 2024, where investigators say he offered illegal financial incentives to canvassers to meet quotas, resulting in submitted fake forms.
- Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday announced the plea, noting that charges remain pending against six canvassers for tampering with public records in Berks, Lancaster, and York counties.
- Investigators found the scheme involved financial motives rather than political ones, with officials confirming that about 1,300 flagged applications never led to fraudulent registrations or votes.
- President Donald Trump claimed the case involved "cheating" and 2,600 votes, though officials emphasized the issue was solely about suspected fraudulent registration forms, not actual ballots.
