The Los Angeles Times reported that 34-year-old councilman Isaac Galvan, a Democrat, was arrested on election fraud and bribery charges.
Galvan and six others were charged with conspiracy to commit election fraud in an election that was decided by just one vote.
The LA Times reported:
Prosecutors allege Galvan conspired with Jace Dawson, one of his opponents in an April primary for Galvan’s council seat, to direct voters from outside the council district to cast ballots for Galvan in a June runoff, the complaint states.
At least three improper ballots were counted in the runoff election, ultimately swinging the race, according to the complaint. Galvan raked in 855 votes while Andre Spicer, a Compton native, and entrepreneur, tallied 854 ballots in a June runoff election, records show.
“Prosecutors also charged Dawson, Kimberly Chaouch, Toni Sanae Morris, Barry Kirk Reed, and Reginald Orlando Streeter with two counts each of conspiracy to commit election fraud. Chaouch, Morris, Reed, and Streeter all voted in the primary or runoff for the Compton City Council’s second district, despite not living there,” the LA Times reported.
Galvan made “an attempt to fraudulently influence the results of the election,” the complaint against him said.
“Elections are the cornerstone of our democratic nation. We must do everything in our power to protect the integrity of the electorate process and to ensure that elections are free and fair,” George Gascón, the Los Angeles County District Attorney said.
“These charges and the activities alleged in this case are serious and strike at a time when public confidence in our electoral process is in decline and misinformation about the security of voting is rampant,” Dean Logan, the county’s top elections official, said. “At the same time, our referral and the District Attorney’s subsequent investigation and charges demonstrate that attempts to perpetrate fraud on the voting process are trackable and will be prosecuted.”
Voter fraud has become a hot-button issue following November’s election.
Earlier this month, a Wisconsin man was charged with four felonies after he cast two absentee ballots in the 2020 election.
Federal prosecutors in North Carolina said that 24 people have been charged in an ongoing probe into voter fraud, including two who are accused of illegally voting in the 2016 presidential election.
In Illinois, the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office filed felony election fraud charges against five individuals in connection with the 2020 general election.
A former Democrat councilman from Clarksville, Tennesee, and his wife were indicted on fraud and perjury charges.
Back in June, there were 7,000 affidavits delivered in the state of Michigan that alleged voter fraud took place.
Texas Democratic mayoral candidate Zul Mirza Mohamed was been indicted on 109 felony voter fraud charges.
Mohamed was charged with 25 counts of knowingly possessing a ballot with intent to defraud, a second-degree felony, and 84 counts of providing false info on a voting application, a third-degree felony.
