Coastal Georgia House Candidate Accused of Alleged Voter Fraud

Brad Raffensperger said his office is reviewing voting records and signatures as investigators examine allegations that David Dillie voted in two state primaries.

  • Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is investigating allegations that Democratic House District 161 candidate David Dillie voted in both Georgia and Nevada primaries this year, a potential violation of state law.
  • Before returning to Coastal Georgia in 2024, Dillie lived in the Las Vegas area and remained a registered voter there. Nevada sends mail-in ballots to all registered voters, which he cited as why a ballot reached his former address.
  • Dillie, a 24-year-old mechanic, denies filling out the Nevada ballot and says he does not know who did. He blamed youth and inexperience, stating he "wasn't knowledgeable" that cancellation was not automatic.
  • Dillie faces seven-term Republican incumbent Bill Hitchens in a race gaining profile due to voter anger over a planned $20 billion OpenAI data center near Rincon. He states he will not drop out of the race.
  • Double-Voting is a felony under Georgia law, punishable by fines and imprisonment. Raffensperger's office is reviewing evidence but provided no specific timeline for completing the investigation.
