CONVICTED: 2016<br />

Nancy Sullivan<br />

CONVICTED: 2016<br />

Fraudulent Use of Absentee Ballots<br />

Derek Castonguay pleaded guilty to voter fraud in Salem District Court<br />

on January 15, 2016. While a resident of Manchester, Castonguay voted<br />

in the towns of Salem and Windham in the general election of 2014,<br />

using addresses where he previously resided. Castonguay received a<br />

12 month suspended sentence and was ordered to pay a $1,000.00<br />

fine plus a 24% penalty assessment. In addition to the sentence and<br />

fine, Castonguay loses his right to vote under the New Hampshire<br />

Constitution, Part I, Article 11.<br />

Nancy Sullivan, a resident of Windham, admitted having committed<br />

voter fraud in the 2014 general election. Sullivan fraudulently obtained<br />

an absentee ballot in the name of her son, Avery Galloway, by forging<br />

his signature on an absentee ballot request form, as well as on the<br />

envelope containing the completed ballot. Sullivan avoided criminal<br />

prosecution and the permanent loss of her ability to vote by paying<br />

a fine as a civil penalty and signing a consent agreement with the<br />

Attorney General.<br />
