snip--"CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A judge on Monday sentenced a Shaker Heights attorney to three years in prison for illegally voting in the last two general elections.

Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court Andrew Santoli called 56-year-old James Saunders’ actions “purposeful, intentional and cavalier” in handing down the maximum sentence. Santoli also fined Saunders $10,000.



snip--"Santoli found Saunders guilty of two felony counts of election fraud last week following a one-day trial held in July. Three witnesses -- elections officials from Cuyahoga County and Broward County, Florida, and an Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigations agent who examined the case -- testified that Saunders cast ballots in Florida and Ohio in each election."

4. Why would anyone do that? When is one vote gonna make the difference that would rationalize

a criminal charge?

I also recall reading several cases of double voting over the past 15 years. All but one, were Republicans.
