DOJ Announces Election-Crime Cases Involving 12 People Across Seven States

Federal prosecutors said the cases include mail-ballot destruction, false citizenship claims and voting by noncitizens in several states.

  • The Justice Department announced charges or guilty pleas involving 12 people across seven states in cases alleging noncitizen voting, false citizenship claims, fraudulent registration, or election-mail mishandling.
  • Two defendants pleaded guilty: Valery Zidor admitted falsely claiming U.S. citizenship to vote in Florida, and Bernadette Acaso admitted unlawfully voting by mail in Hawaii.
  • Prosecutors charged other defendants with alleged election offenses or fraudulent registrations in Florida, Kansas, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Texas; the defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
  • Former postal carrier Damon Matai Seei was charged with allegedly discarding about 300 mail-in ballots intended for Utah voters; the case concerns mail handling, not ballot casting.
