CONVICTED: 2004
Duplicate Voting
Thomas Ramey, Donald Whitten, and Jerry Bowman
CONVICTED: 2012
Fraudulent Use of Absentee Ballots
Dustin S. Collings, identified as a homeless Seattle resident, was
convicted of casting two ballots, both using the alias of Dustin Ocoilain,
a name that was listed twice on the voter registration rolls.
Former Lincoln County Commissioner Thomas Ramey pleaded guilty to
lying to federal officers in the midst of their investigation of a massive
voter fraud conspiracy. Sheriff Jerry Bowman and County Clerk Donald
Whitten also pleaded guilty, admitting that they stuffed ballot boxes
with fraudulent ballots and falsified absentee ballots in an effort to rig
the 2010 Democratic primary. Whitten won the election, but a judge
overturned the election after throwing out 300 fraudulent ballots.
Ramey was sentenced to 21 months of imprisonment. Bowman was
sentenced to one year and one day in federal prison, three years of
supervised release and a $5,000 fine. Whitten was sentenced to 18
months in prison and three years of supervised release, with a $5,000
fine.
