Believe it or not five people have been charged with voter fraud in Illinois. Illinois has long been known for its capacity to cheat, JFK rode voter fraud in Illinois to capture the presidency in 1960.
Chicago Mayor Daley is credited with delivering for Kennedy.
Nixon could have contested the election but he was afraid it would damage the country and he ignored the pleas of his fellow Republicans and he let it stand.
The state attorney’s office investigated 32 cases of possible fraud and found five cases they believed had enough evidence to necessitate prosecution. The accused are Colleen A. Kirchoff, 60, of Naperville; Thomas E. Wojciechowski, 73, of Carol Stream; and Adam P. Butler, 51, of Lisle. they face various charges all revolving around voter fraud.
We have no idea what the specific allegations are but we do know what the five have been charged with.
Kirchoff was charged with forgery and perjury after she allegedly attempted to cast a ballot for someone else, officials said in a news release. Butler was charged with a count of forgery and one count of perjury in election code, while Wojciechowski was charged with one count of perjury in election code, officials said.
Two others—Darrick Kent, 43, and Amy Kent, 41—of Austin, Texas, were each charged with one count of perjury in the election code.
DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin said in a release:
“I would like to thank County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek and her office for their fine work in uncovering these alleged violations and bringing them to our attention.”
“The charges filed today are the direct result of the cooperation and professionalism displayed by the Clerk’s Office throughout the entire investigation.”
“The very foundation of our country is built upon fair and free elections. Elections are a sacred duty and while the five defendants charged today represent an infinitesimal percentage of the 491,067 votes cast in the 2020 general election, it is important that anyone suspected of attempting to interfere in any way in the election process be investigated and charged where appropriate.”
Separately, in Aberdeen, Mississippi, a judge ordered a new election for alderman after he found that 75% of the mail-in ballots were fraudulent.
