PENNSYLVANIA PENNSYLVANIA Eugene Gallagher CONVICTED: 2015 Fradulent Use of Absentee Ballots Richard Allan Toney CONVICTED: 2014 Fraudulent Use of Absentee Ballots Eugene Gallagher pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor charges in connection with the November 2013 election, in which he was a candidate for councilman in the Taylor Borough. He unlawfully persuaded Taylor residents and non-residents to register for absentee ballots in the election using a Taylor address. Gallagher was the top vote-getter in the election and won his first term as councilman. With his guilty plea, Gallagher can no longer hold public office and a judge sentenced him to a maximum of 10 months in jail and two months of house arrest. He was also sentenced to more than five years of court supervision and 200 hours of community service. The former police chief of Harmar Township, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty to illegally soliciting absentee ballots to benefit his wife and her running mate in the 2009 Democratic primary for town council. Toney applied for the ballots, and then had them filled out illegally by individuals not expected to be absent on election day. The absentee ballot count flipped the primary results, securing a victory for Mrs. Toney’s running mate. During the subsequent FBI investigation, Mr. Toney attempted to prevent witnesses, including two grand jury witnesses, from testifying. Toney was sentenced to three years’ probation.
