CONVICTED: 2004
Buying Votes
Robert Monroe
CONVICTED: 2016
Duplicate Voting
In West Virginia, Johnny Mendez, the sheriff of Logan County,
pleaded guilty to federal charges that he accepted $10,000 in illegal
contributions and used the money to buy votes in the 2000 and 2004
elections.
Robert Monroe, identified by prosecutors as the worst multiple-voter
in state history, pleaded no contest to charges that he voted more
than once in 2011 and 2012. Monroe’s record was extensive: he voted
twice in the April 2011 Wisconsin Supreme Court election, twice in the
2011 recall election of state Senator Alberta Darling, and five times in
Gov. Scott Walker’s recall election. He also cast an illegal ballot in the
August 2012 primary, and voted twice in the 2012 general election.
On four of the counts, Monroe received a suspended three year prison
sentence, and will serve up to a year in jail. He also received five years’
probation, and was ordered to complete 300 hours of community
service and pay a $5,000 fine.
