Woman charged with voting twice, casting illegal vote with deceased mother’s name
NASHWAUK, Minn. (KJBR/Gray News) - A woman is accused of trying to vote early twice in the upcoming election.
Danielle Miller faces three felony counts, including casting an illegal vote in Minnesota.
According to court documents, the Itasca County auditor contacted the sheriff’s office on Oct. 9 regarding possible voter fraud with absentee ballots.
The ballots were flagged because one of the signatures was that of a deceased person.
The two ballots were for Miller and Rose Javorina, Miller’s mother, who died in August.
The ballots were received on Oct. 7, showing each woman had signed as a witness for the other’s ballot.
Miller allegedly told officers she signed both absentee ballots, saying her mom was an avid Donald Trump supporter and would’ve voted for the former president if she was still alive.
Miller is due in court in December.
